I'm 42, when I sent my mom out with a shopping list for this stuff as a kid it ended up in her (almost) being arrested.

  Yes, back in the 60's my buddy and I asked our parents to buy us some powdered aluminum and iron-oxide. We got in trouble because the chemical supply company warned them about our requested ingredients. That was the end of our homemade thermite project. So it was on to another project, homemade lock-picks.
