Re: Is Cornstarch Firebreathing MOOPy?

No combination; just pure cornstarch. When you breathe it out/airate it, it can be ignited.

We're going to be using a generator to power this, so I spliced the wires to worth with a 12v 1800mAH AC Adapter. However, I've run into a few hiccups: 1) Using the measurements for the cooling pad li...
