I have had the incredible luck of being able to use fire poi as a chemistry science fair project. My whole idea is to look at the different chemicals used to produce different colors while spinning. I am looking for any info about what chemicals produce what colors, info about what chemicals show the best colors, which ones burn longest, and basically any ideas about how i could demonstrate these things (keeping in mind that this is at school) etc... basically i want to have a chemistry project that actually interests me for once

Well, tonight i am typing up the final report. 10 pages long at the very least
but its not looking too bad. This weekend im going to compile the video im going to need and i present on wed. Sorry i havnt gotten any good pictures in the gallery yet, the only good pictures i have i will need to capture off of the film because my digital camera will not show green flames, only shows them as white. anyway i will have some decent pictures on here by next thursday at the latest.
