Sulphurless Blackpowder

Has anyone tried it?

For the dry mix, you use 7.5 parts KNO3 and 2 parts charcoal.

I've read that it burns much quicker and would be good for fuse-making.

I've also read that it is better and that it is worse.

Yeah I'm a n00b to the scene.

I've had a look through the forums and done a bit of this and a bit of that and I have some questions I hope you can answer.

1. Where the hell do I get sulphur from?
2. Where do I get fuse from?
3. Can I make my own? If so, how?
4. Is the 75:15:10 ratio by volume or by weight? :unsure:

Many thanks in advance.
