Great post @hellfire-labs
Thermite is quite powerful. I saw on TV how rails were welded together using thermite. Also, when the reaction is started, it is impossible to stop the reaction with normal substances, due to the high temperatures and the fact that the reaction requires no external oxygen. I also saw a video where thermite was ignited above a glass tank filled with water. Short after falling in the water, there was a significant explosion
Quite impressive.
I'm sorry that I can't give you a valuable upvote for now. But this will definitely be done as soon as my VP has regenerated again on one of your comments. :-)
Thermite is quite an interesting substance! I was honestly quite surprised with the results of this test because there are quite a few impurities in the iron ore so I did not expect as high of a yield or as vigorous of a reaction. This looks promising for a future, larger smelt!

I'm already very excited about the follow-up :-)
Hotter, brighter, bigger :-D
