This is the place to seek information about making your own equipment, advice and tips, etc...
As this site has existed for many years many things have already been discussed so we advice you to [Old link] and consult the following list of FAQs. If you wish to discuss an issue it is better to read through an existing thread and then continue that existing thread instead of starting a new one.
Note: this list will expand with time.

This is one of the 2 most frequently asked questions and there is a Coloured Flames Article which should answer all your questions. If you wish to discuss coloured flames further then please use an existing thread such as [Old link].
