- Match powder is great for a lot of projects as a weak substitute for gunpowder. This method involves a coffee grinder and boxed matches.
Thanks for watching, have a nice day, and subscribe if you'd like :D

You can use the fluff with residual match powder as a fire starter for survivalist with a flint and steel or a fire bow ash.
just put the ground fluff directly into the strainer and you can get all of the powder in one go. so instead of it falling to the bottom of a container, it just falls through the strainer into your bowl
Creepy to see my mothers' bowls used in a CZcams video...
Lol
😂😂
😂
If you have access to cheap distilled water you could just put the coffee grinder slurry into some distilled water, mix it around and skim off the wood fiber, then let the water evaporate. at room temperature the good stuff in the match heads (potassium chlorate) should be relatively water soluble.
Are you saying to grind it with distilled water? And how long do you let it sit before skimming of the cardboard dust? Your idea sounds awesome let me know if you got any answers and tips thanks
You could use a flour sifter to sort all of the match powder out of the fluff
Any issue with accidental ignition while grinding?
OMG How to use a coffee grinder tutorial 101!!!
Why not just sift all of it with a fine sifter right into the plate?
There is the possibility of match powder getting stuck between the wood "pulp" and never making it into the sifter. It's like decanting before filtering, it's not efficient to put all the solution through a filter when it's possible to isolate the compound you want through density.
Thankyou for sharing your setup have fun be safe.
you should extract the chlorate with acetone afterwards, and do a 6,5:3,5 mix (chlorate:sugar), this is about as powerful as Pyrodex by weight. for priming powder you can then mix this stuff with scraped off striking surface matter from the books.
i personally would've yused either a small ball mill or a mortar and pestle to grind the match heads.
Lol I read title as matcha powder like the fine tea Powder
I thought of that but i was afraid it would burn up if i turn that on...
What i do is take a multi tool, crush the tips off trying to get as little wood in as possible, then i have it all in a container try and pick the wood out, and use a hammer/ and container as a morter and pestle but this seems easier maybe not the fluff part but i didnt think of coffee grinder to make it a finer powder
Wouldn't it be easier to just shake all the pulp through a sifter to extract the powder?
When you watch the video and this is what happens:
Good! I always was looking about how to gather match heads.
Oh, he also has 1000 matches pack.
Wow! He also has paper ones!
🤯 he also bought them for 2 dollars!
If you want to send bullets down range use compressed air as a propellant.
can you use strike any where matches and do the strike on matches not light/explode because they have to strike on box
Chris Cautillo It is not recommended as the strike anywhere has a white tip which is sensitive to ignition when struck also thereby causing it to ignite the mix in your grinder.
wy not buy sulfure ? or the active ingredient of a match head? a lot ceaper and painless
Probably you chose a quite ineffective way to extract match powder. Simple washing with subsequent extraction using alcohol is a much easier and effective
what do you do with match powder I don't understand why you would need to do this
You could also take the match heads and soak them in isopropol alcohol or something similar, then filter and evaporate. I think you would recover the most this way, but your way is simpler and you don't need any alcohol so much cheaper. Great video!
If i do this can i use denatured alchohol
@@brodester22 Yes, it will work just the same.
@@tommasopetrella4856 can you email me detailed instructions? have you tried this yourself?
Not what I wanted to see but it was still informative and entertaining
Use the sulfur of the match boxes aswell!
Makes it more explosive, but more dangerous too, any pressure may triggers it. And its loud so it can cause serious ear damage, this is why you should use ear protection!
Fairex it's a common mistake the stricken pads are actually phosphorus
Awesome : )
Make a video on how to get the red phosphorus from the striker strips. Meth is meth making meth is an art.
If you want? Have a hose just in case? anyone see where this is safe at all?
Why not just use the strainer the first time after u blended it?
You could also use sodium nitrate and powdered sugar instead.
You could crush the heads on the match and skip, cutting, grinding and leaching.
Better when the powder Is crushed off the heads with pliers it falls right off.
By lightly pound a matchstick, the match powder simply separates from the stick, this is really lengthy with an ridiculous yield
But a lot of wood will end up in the mixture, trust me, I tried many, many methods and this one is the best!
No. These fellas don't understand. He could've extracted with just sitting. Or with isopropyl alcohol or acetone. Something that will evaporated. This seems like he was just bored asf and wanted to make a DIFFERENT way for content. Still works still effective but there are 1000 ways to skin kitties bro lmao
Could i use wooden type?
profile picture looks familiar
@@sheepyleepy..2806 lmao wtf, 7 years ago
@@RezzpektMVP yep
i dont know why it made 3 copies of my reply
Why not just buy the individual chemicals? There was a lot of work that went into the making of them there matches.
tapping on the side of the plastic container would get even more match powder to separate out.
cool idea with the coffee grinder. I use this to grind my pyrotechnic chemicals up. It is a lot faster than a ball mill when you can use it for such. I would try to not grind your match tips quite as long. I think it might work better for you and not make that fluffy paper mache ball you had when you were done. try just pulsing it on off for a few seconds and then check in between to see what you've got in the container. Thanks for posting
Here's my new video on Match Powder. Check it out :D
did you get bored cutting all of those Lol
good
Why don't u use a whisk thingy
I did this right before I saw your video and the coffee grinder exploded and a ball of fore flew half way to the ceiling! Is it because I used the wooden matches?
Trevor10122 A ball of fore? Did the face of Tiger Woods appear in the room too?
put a match on a metal surface and hit it with a hammer. It explodes like a primer. I was doing this when I was 12 years old. I'm 73 and still know NOT to strike a common match even with the high speed blades of a coffee mill. This author is just plain lucky HE hasn't burned himself badly or set his house ablaze. I made lots of MATCH HEAD cannons in my youth and my brother in law found out the hard way to NOT ram match heads into a steel cylinder. He did so and it blew the ram rod through his hand. I was sitting at his kitchen table 10 years later and he was still picking festering paper match residue out of his hand with a needle. 10 years later. I was the one who brought him to the hospital after we threw the HOMEMADE cannon in the river. All the flesh of his palm was removed. I laughed for 2 hours at how STUPID he was. DO NOT IMPACT MATCH HEADS BY ANY FASHION. NOT A HAMMER, NOT A MORTAR AND PESTLE, DONT SQUEEZE THEM WITH PLIARS. I CAME TO THIS VIDEO TO SEE IF THERE MIGHT BE A WAY TO RE LIQUIFY THE TIP TO RE USE THE SUBSTANCE TO CREATE A QUICK CANNON FUSE BY FILLING A COPPER TUBE FOR MY GOLF BALL CANNON. TO EXPLAIN HOW I LEGITIMATELY FOUND THIS IDIOTIC METHOD TO CREATE MATCH POWDER. THIS IS BAD. BELIEVE ME. YOU CAN EASILY END UP IN THE HOSPITAL, IF YOU LIVE.
is an exquisite recipe should add scrambled eggs and make an omelet of powder
Could this be used in muskets?
please dont
A more easy way is to crunch the top of matches and put it in a sandwich bag then take a spoon and bang the match crunching. It take a bit but yol have match powder👍Always works
Thats so much more effort than just using pliers to get it off the top
+Thomas Frazer Ruins my coffe machine too, buy in bulk at he pharmacy, too easy its already in powder
this is the funny part. The title says "how to make match powder". Misleading. The match powder is already made, just condensed on a match stick. The video is to merely get people to start purchasing matchbooks in bulk and coffee grinders. (here's how it works: if you own stock in something and what you invested in isn't doing so well just find a project or make a video using what you have stock in. supply and demand. it also works in reverse.)
+Pancho Bauer what I want to know is what do you do with this stuff when you get powder make a big match I'm sorry just don't see the a placation to this stuff
can someone tell me what happened I fell asleep half way through
It would be easier to drop the whole lot in water. The wood will separate and float. You can dry the powder after. You are losing a good amount of your powder. Even a sifter or a piece of screen mesh would be more effective..
If you have to use the hose unplug the cord first or you will be the owner of a 4'X8' Plot of land forever!
"That looks safe"!
I would have used a sander to vibrate the powder to the bottom and make sure I got all of it
put the fluff in the strainer to get the power out
Wowty so much I can take 25 bucks and get pure match powder homemade ty plz make more videos I am a sub now ;)
I grew a potato with this thanks!!
why did you not just do like 7:02 from the start instead of putting in on a plate?...
I thought this video was the first step in making your own matches.
would be easier to put it all on a piece of paper (on a hard flat ground, like an anvil), and then either take a hammer or a metal rod and roll and grind the matchheads
ive done it and it works amazing, no need to buy any chemicals (tho thats the most effective method) and less risk of explosion
and yes ik its a 7yr old vid
Using rubbing alcohol to remove the red powder would be more effective and efficient, then dry...
Wet that pulp and pour through filter paper. Evaporate at room temp
Can you use green matches
Yeah
i thought he was gon crush the match heads and then sieve it
No wait it's called a sifter I think
Am i the only one who thinks the Stuff in the mixer looks like a Strawberrie Milkshake ? ^^
good channle
Step 1 make the hole process take longer
Step 2: get way less powder at the end of the process
Every new year i buy a kg of gunpowder in small Sound making tubes for about 10$
Yeah that "fluff" is why it's easier to use a knife to remove the phosphorus from the match then just grinding it with the cardboard still on. But if it's working for ya then right on (most people aren't looking to just set fire to it is why they're gripping about separating it)
I did this and they caught fire in grinder and severely burned my arm.
I just uploaded a new video where I extract the potassium chlorate directly out of the matches to make ROCKET FUEL! check it out: czcams.com/video/EgbfLakTLcw/video.html
muivonito todo eso es en el mar
is that burger patty!!
A hose for a potential electrical fire? Hmmm 🤔
Why not just dump the fluff in the sieve and shake it
Alternatively, you can buy a shit ton of potassium chlorate online.
+Nekros Not in my country it's illegal.
Aaaaaaahahhahahahaha
But in Germany it is Not allowed
500 matches for a few grams isnt really worth it bro. i mean just doing plyers on 5 wooden matches at a time will get you way more match powder
You can just crush/scratch the red stuff from the wood, it is a lot faster
why u need the powder?
lol
Or buy phosphorous or potassium chlorate.....
does you mom know what you're using her dishes for?
mass produce match power step 1:go in to amazon and search match powder
You probably can’t buy it off the internet in some countries and any adds for it are probably government bait for gullible people to click and then be sent to prison.
@@conangaming2156 ty for replying to my 2yr old

F
u missed to film the best part of it
If you just cut the heads of matches and compress them into a pipe topped off with a fire cracker and fuse sticking out a hole in the center of at the cap it will explode like gunpowder when lit. Did it when I was a kid. A friend (not to bright) used blue tip matches and of course during compression it went off and blew off a couple of his fingers. The idiot. You sure are doing a lot of work for little result. The paper from the match that is left over like dust from a silo explosion is highly combustible. Use it too.
Chuñ
Or crush the match heads like a normal person instead of cutting the heads off...
seriosly
👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Why are there so many dislikes?
this is dangroe
were they 2 dollars or 50 dollars #confused lol
he said 50packs not 50bucks, i was confused at first too
+Christian Mejia said "50 books", the pack of the 50 is $2
why not shake all the "fluff" thru the strainer to begin with? EUREKA!!
cost effective lmfao, you kids jesus.....
chemical extraction would be better and more pure
Not everyone is Walter White! But yes it would be.
A chemical extraction could be as simple as pouring boiling water through the chopped up matches which would then dissolve the potassium chlorate and then the water could be evaporated.
it is not making
Lol looks like a bud grinder
1000 matches 2 $?! O_____O are you serious ? 1000 matches cost EXACTLY 0.50€ in bulgaria ..... ( not books - the better ones )
First...you don't actual "Make" the match powder. Second, that filtering out the powder, so restarted. Why waste all those steps when u can just use the strainer in in the beginning. If it doesn't get the fluff the first try, do a second try with the strainer.
Your not really making match powder. It's more of a "processing of..." its was already made, produced and used by the company that made the matches. You just made an elaborate "Rube Goldberg " machine...
This approach is horribly inefficient, not to mention that you could be mixing in the striker pospherus for much more potent powder.
match powder? what? I watched the how to make match powder, and he got a load of powder from 500 books of matches, but........WHY.
OK, I'm from the UK so every second person dosn't have a gun hard on! but I thought this dude was gonna do something cool, like blow shit up or something !!! fill me in please someone on the purpose?
really cheap...yeah u just gotta buy a coffee grinder...U_U
HOLY FUCK 500 MATCHES AND A WASTE OF TIME FOR A TABLE SPOON OF POWDER.
Max Payne Not by much...
putting match heads in a coffee grinder is dangerous. I rather add alcohol and water to dampen it a little. then pound and grind it with a moltar. using a silkscreen fabric to strain the impurities. putting it directly in the coffee grinder is suicide.
I bet that fluff with the powder would be really flammable without getting the fluff out. Seems like you lost 75% of it so I don't think it was very effective at all. Kind of a fail...
Paul Lonardo he probably just dint sift through all of it, the fluff would be flammable but wont burn fast
