Make Your Own All-Natural Deodorant {Stick or Spray}One Good Thing by Jillee
Several months ago I posted a recipe for making your own deodorant. It was mainly in response to discovering that those hard to remove armpit stains (see how to get rid of them here!) are caused by the aluminum in commercial antiperspirants! While I have been perfectly happy with this deodorant…some people would prefer not to have to put their fingers into it to apply it and have requested a SPRAY or SOLID alternative. The SOLID version was actually inspired by my sister Rebecca. Her original recipe makes a BIG BATCH of deodorant, so I decided to cut it in half and it turned out to be the perfect amount to fill two empty deodorant tubes. Homemade Solid Deodorant Ingredients: 1/2 cup coconut oil 1 1/2 Tablespoons beeswax pellets 1/2 cup baking soda 1/2 cup cornstarch 10 drops each of Lavender, Lemon and Frankincense Essential Oils If you don’t have essential oils on hand, don’t fret. Directions: Add the coconut oil, and beeswax pellets to a small saucepan. Homemade Spray-On Deodorant
How to make Thermite Grenades for Vehicle and Equipment Disabling - usCrow
After reading How to disable MRAP Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected Light Armored Vehicles, written by CMF Contributor Runik. I noticed the absence of TGs (thermite grenades) on the use of MRAPs. This caught my attention, and needed an explanation. According to CMF Contributor Runik, Thermite Grenades were not included because they are not entirely effective against MRAP LAVs. Effective thermite use on an MRAP relies on breaches in MRAP FK6 armor, which are few to say the least. Basically…EFPs are still your best bet on an MRAP. Thermite is used on vehicles and equipment not equipped with FK armor. Now before we go into thermite details and development, lets address your PERSEC (personal security). Thermite Use Thermite is a legal pyrotechnic grade composition of metal powder fuel and oxide. Thermite is commonly used in the Middle East by United States Armed Forces. Typically, ALS thermite grenades have a relatively small incendiary damage radius. Thermite Precautions How to make Thermite
