The metalsmith tool looks useful for making the flares. Is this still available from metalsmith as i could not see it listed on their website?

I just realised that I should not have said that trichloroethylene is the same as trichloroethane - they are different solvents. However the ebay item is for trichloroethylene which is used as a degreaser.

Peter, Ozzyo
a quick search of ebay in the UK shows that trichloroethylene is still available to buy as a degreaser - see item
221292856608
or just search for trichloroethylene (this is the same as trichloroethane)
