Dan Williams' site seems to have vanished...

Does anyone know, offhand, the proper density to press black powder to when you corn it? I want to say 1.17 grams/CC, but I'm not sure. No one seems to know.

That must be something recent, then. I paged through just about every single google search page for "Dan Williams" and found zlich. Google had a cache of his front page and projects page, but not the black powder page. Bastards.

So I was right about the 1 and the 7. Close enough. Thanks.

I've got a copy of it on one of my CD-Rs. Unfortunately, they're all packed up at the moment.

Also, isn't there a PDF copy of his site on the FTP?

Eh, it's moot now. CyclonitePyro posted a good mirror (or wherever it moved to, at least), so as long as someone has an archive of the thing we should be alright...

I've got a .pdf copy of Dan Williams site, however it didn't upload properally the first time I tried to upload it, I'll try again when the forum FTP is back up.
