Have you heard about a pointy hammer? :)

If you're that intent on firey destruction, it
would be much simpler &
safer to use an oxyacetylene cutting torch, or a plasma cutter.

Anyone have advice on making thermite?
Ingredients, sources, proportions?
The internet seems to think that just using aluminum powder with ferric
oxide is relatively hard to ignite, and that some manganese dioxide would
help with that.
Without spending too much time shopping, it looks like I can get:
* aluminum powder, 5 micron, 2 lb for $34
* ferric oxide, 10 lb for $27
* manganese dioxide, 1 lb for $39
