The problem is that's not enough burn to make it through things like an engine or other equipment you want to brick. There needs to be a way to force that heat/melt downward and burn longer.
In that case, why not reach behind the wheel and put it on the axle of the vehicle? Even if you don't completely burn a hole through it, if you can mess it up, it will make it difficult or dangerous to drive. Put it on the steering column. Even if they can replace it later on down the road, it's not moving until they do. Put it above the driver seat, and you might catch the entire vehicle on fire, if not at least make it incredibly difficult to sit in the driver seat and drive.
I just sent you an email with an updated formula that works much better, just takes a few more steps. I hope to see you expand on it in a future video. Best of luck!
You just need a higher Al ratio when using plaster of paris, an appropriate booster mix to get the casted thermite reaction going and of course an igniter powerful enough to get the booster mix started. But we will all have to wait and see if Invention Incarnate decides to do anything with the information provided.
Years ago i wanted to do pretty much this..... but way smaller...... i wanted to make tiny little Firestarter's for camping/emergencies, but it never worked out. i wanted something small enough you could keep a few of them safely in a like altoids can, or some similar sized package, maybe in a roll like tums or rollos. once some friends and i got stuck out in some heavy rain while camping, and we couldnt get a fire started, and some other campers gave us some " fire ribbon" and that was able to get the fire started, but with the rain, it almost didnt, and took alot of work. Ever since, i wanted to have something that could get a camp fire going in pretty much any weather, and my solution was thermite since it gets soo hot, and isnt usually explosive, but as i said, the project never really worked out.

@inventionincarnate, the plaster is gypsum, like in drywall, and it's Calcium Sulfate, CaSO4, and the "O4" is what oxidizes the Al in the thermite mix. And when it becomes naturally occurring Gypsum, or is molded as plaster by addition of water, it becomes the hydrate crystal form CaSO4•2H20 with two water molecules bound up in it. Similar to cement, lime/Calcium Oxide CaO, and Calcium Hydroxide Ca(OH)2 when wet in mortar or cement +etc. I think I need to experiment with anhydrous dry plaster powder & Al mix, vs. hydrated & hardened cast plaster just to see what the difference actually is, and what the extra water molecules for moldability "costs." Maybe fixed ratios, minus hydration, in an identical volume of water, with the same starting temperatures. 🤔 I suspect the 4 Oxygens liberated off the Sulfur are easier to react, and carry more oxidizing energy to the Aluminum which is why it consumes itself so quickly. But its not as hot as Fe/Al thermite because that heat & energy is probably getting dispersed in driving off the additional two water molecules. 🤔 For "regular" Fe/Al Thermite mixes, "Red" Fe2O3 Iron Oxide will burn a little hotter, and is easier to ignite. "Black" Fe3O4 Iron Oxide is harder to ignite, but produces more molten Iron. So something like a train track welding application, or... Idunno, burning a hole through the top armor of a T-72 while helping the Wolverines drive the Soviets out of your town, you might want some Red Oxide Thermite starter, and a larger amount of Black Oxide mix. Also, you might want to try "Durham's Rock Hard Water Putty" for castable Thermite mixes. Its just plaster, with a few percent of Dextrin & cellulose as binders, making it a bit tougher & more durable than pure Gypsum plaster.
@InventionIncarnate I'm making a test right now. Two different Durham's thermite pucks with identical 2" Mg ribbon fuses. Both are 2:1 ratios of Durhams Plaster to 400µm German Dark Al. 20g/10g. One puck also has 15g of H2O to set the Plaster, and it was vacuum de-gassed while wet. The other is dry, no water, and hard-rammed into a "cookie" under a 1 ton arbor press. I want to see if driving the extra H2O's off the set hydrated Gypsum in the Durhams Plaster mix during combustion reduces the visible energy output appreciably over the anhydrous calcium sulfate. But we need the anhydrous "dry" mix to be in close contact & hard pressed because "fluffy" thermites can react almost immediately or deflagrate like flash or BP. So i'm trying for "apples to apples" as best I can. I'll link a video from my "lab" (garage) in the "thermal test basin" tomorrow. (Wheelbarrow of gravel.) If they seem appreciably different in the video & to Mk1 eyeball, Adam & Jamie can call it "Confirmed." If we don't see a difference? I'll do it again with some kind of improvised water calorimeter and see if there's some measurable energy difference. And then perhaps they can call it "Busted." Either way, Kari Byron won't be making an appearance. 😒

I torched down the Mg ribbon, nothing. Made a glowing red spot in the center, nothing. The edge, it ignited acceptably. It might need more testing, but dry CaSO4/Al certainly SEEMED to be far faster & more energetic. It was still pretty crumbly, so I kept it in the little plastic condiment container. And it left no metallic slag behind like the water/molded one. I mainly just didn't want it to deflagrate/detonate like I've had 3:1 Fe2O3 & Al that were both loose 400µm powder. But, for "apples to apples" comparison, having both the hydrated sample & anhydrous one both equally hard would be ideal to see if it really is the additional 2 H20's that slow it down, or if it was just the surface area & density. 🤔
For those who don't know, Thermite is often used to weld railway rails, but can also be used to melt and cast iron into molds. Fun stuff! ...but dangerous. Use with adult supervision.
I'm assuming (much as I hate to do that) that you actually wet mixed the plaster and aluminum. I caught where you said that you "Let it dry" . Did you just use water per usual or something else?
Show me a Thermite that burns/fuses without significantly changing its shape. Mold the 'play-dough', ignite it and after it cools, the molded shape is now metal. Hydrate before Coffee!
Fuse alone will not set it off. Try this 5 parts of a purple oxidizer. If you know chemistry then you know what it is. One part sulfur One part silicon. Mix it all together, it’s stable and can be lit with a fuse, like your kits.
Would that stuff burn under water and would it burn hot enough in a 1 man manageable size to burn concrete/wood/steel plate? this could be useful in some diving applications as apposed to the more expensive option Broco cutting.
I'd be super careful with that primer mixture. It's pretty similar to flash. The red gum might de-sensitize it a bit, but I still wouldn't store it in glass. I winced when you screwed the lid on. That much flash would easily take your arm and the glass would only make it worse. Others who know more should chime in, but you should test that primer for sensitivity against a reference mixture so you know what you're working with.
It's important to be careful even just messing with Thermite mixes. If you use 400µm pyrotechnic Aluminum, AND a similar fine grade of Red Fe2O3 Iron Oxide, (ceramic supply glaze powder is popular) if it's not well packed into intimate contact, or actually cast with a binder, a loose fluffy pile of it will... not detonate, but it definitely will deflagrate in a far more Black Powder or Flash Powder like manner. If you can't ram, pack, or compress the mix, having one or both components of a much larger flake/grain or shaving size is critical. At best, you get a very un-Thermite like "poof" & fountain effect. At worst, it's a bomb.

Will thermite ignite TNT?
Maybe a specific shape would…
Is there a malleable version? Say you got an old corroded padlock or whatever, you could go up and form it around it, insert the igniter, and gone with it.
If this don’t cut iron it’s worthless.
You are so fuckin awesome!
