Depends on the motor you want to create, Ammonium Perchlorate is the most powerful oxidizer and is used in the large expert motors. If youre a beginner you should go with KNO3. Most of the other oxidizers are very/pretty impractical.
I dont see how u can lose 3 fingers from just BP but yes it is dangerous and that was just stupid. you may have 20 foot arms but duh u can still blow em up if you use them to mix stuff etc., but you could always make a some sort of remote control mecahnism to make the reaction procede with you safely away. An example is the atom bomb, very dangerous, but still can be tested safely.
one reaction that looks really cool is you take equal amounts roughly of each, put them in a test tube, and then heat till the kno3 melts then it burns bright and looks kinda like KCLO4 + gummy bear
it would probably produce less smoke but that smoke would have less time to clear so you would have a thicker cloud. The amount of smoke difference wouldnt be noticable.
Well i found a little extraction method for myself that ive never exactly heard of: lets say you take a solution of something in water, then u add 200 proof EtOH, and some of the stuff that was in the water precipetates out n u can collect. Just thought i would share this, guess its a form of crystallization.
its worse, becuase youll get a bunch of chromium oxide, nad it wouldnbt work very well. Plus its more expensive. Go with KNO3. AN is alot harder to work with because its hard to light AN motors.
