Ok about rust I was bored and didnt feel like doin my HW so I decided to look thru my chem book. Lookin thru it I found that you can make rust very easily by moistning steel wool. I was wondering if this would be good for thermit. It says the reacton should be complete in about 3 days. (Im sooo happy im takin chem this year im gonna ask the teacher if we are going to be doing any chemistry of explosives the teacher seems pretty cool so far)

This technique (and others) for making rust has been discussed at length, try a search.
