WOW, this guy would brag about all his rocket tooling in one of the facebook groups. Unbelievable he would store all that at his residents. Complete disregard for the safety of his family and his neighbors.

They play a learning game in medical school , they give the medical students a list of medications and ask them "What wrong with this pt"? The ATF is going to play a similar game , here a list of chemicals "What was this man making"? There are few chemicals on the list I am not familiar with, Hexamethalyne Tetramine for example

From Wiki:

"Hexamethylenetetramine is the base component to produce RDX and, consequently, C-4[4] as well as octogen (a co-product with RDX), hexamine dinitrate, hexamine diperchlorate and HMTD."

It's also used in tablet form for those boy scout or military cook stoves.

As for the former, I bet it's probably one of the top things the ATF has in their mind at the moment.

The sad thing is that they could have done this responsibly. Get an ATF Manufacturer's license and put this stuff in a shed in the back of someone's farm away from the neighbors. At least they would have only killed themselves.
