Making thermite paste with iron oxide

[zytyxx]

Hi. Is there anyone else like me? I like fire and a lot of things fire-related. Does anyone know an easy way to get iron oxide in large quantites? The nails I hae are galvanized, and I don't have any acidic solution with a pH of about 4 or lower. It takes foerever... For any people that want to know, I am trying to make thermite paste. Just a thought: Thermite burns through wood quicker than termites eat through wood.

That qualifies as a dangerous activity, we don't discuss pyrotechnics here.
