This smoke bomb composition is called the "Legendary" because the creator called it that. It is far better than the normal Potassium nitrate and sucrose composition.

Wax and KNO3 + Sugar

Weigh the stuff you need. For this tutorial I will use 75g Potassium nitrate, 50g sugar, 50g wax.
Mix the Potassium nitrate with the sugar together.

Step 2

You can cut the wax into pieces so the melting goes faster

Put the wax in the pan and put the heat on.

Step 3 When the wax has become waterish, add the Potassium nitrate and sugar.
You should have a white snowy looking mix. Turn off the heat, and stir a minute, crush the clots.

Step 4 Pour the mix into your preferred canister. Drain excess wax to wherever you want.

Step 5 Cover the top to 1/2 way down the canister with aluminum foil. You should have a few layers with aluminum foil, and maybe some paper between the aluminum layers.

Step 6 Stick a small hole in the top, a pen works fine. Then press the pen halfway into the mix, creating a nice hole for the fuse.

Step 7 Add the fuse, shove it through the rest of the mix.

Step 8 Put the bomb in the freezer for about 20-30 minutes and it should be ready to use!
