As far as ball mill safety goes, the motor should be completely separated from the milling area, so that no powder can get to the motor. I also barricade my ball mill with a thick inner layer of Styro surrounded by an outer layer of concrete blocks. The least you can do is prepare for a potential accident.

Hi! I'm back after being away from pyro for a while. Recently I've been wondering, if there is a good alternative for ball mill. The reason I need an alternative, is because I can't afford to order a ball mill (saving money for chemicals). I would build one for myself, but I can't (no motor, a li...

So my old '79 Sears Craftsman Garden Tractor finally bit the dust. I just put a new starter motor on it last year. Would it be acceptable to use this kind of motor for a ball mill? I also have a 1/4hp dual line jet motor for a shallow well. Would I be able to remove the wet end and use that? Just...





Also, I shared my findings with the manufacturer of the hobbyist mill. It could be just coincidence, but their newer mills now have larger diameter jars. You probably won't find actual confirmation of my findings, because most pyros are more interesting in making pyro than making more work for themselves, just for the sake of learning.

To prevent your motor from burning out I would recommend 2-3lb's lead and 150-200g composition per jar. I personally use just over 2Lb's lead and 200g composition with a 1" O.D. drive roller in my 3Lb jars on these mills. PERFECT black powder in 20-23 hours. With 150g composition in the mill it's perfect in around 14 hours.

While BP has been made without a ball mill for years, professionally a wheel mill is used, early history was the use of a manual stamp mill, there is now no justification for failing to buy the basic minimum rock tumbler, which is usually available for below £100. A charge of suitable lead or ceramic media completes a very satisfactory …
