I have a Porter-Cable framer's saw, and its base is made of magnesium, and when I found this out, like any pyro, my first thought was "I wonder how well it would burn?" Students of the history of cool computers may remember that the NeXT cube's case was also made of magnesium, and Simson Garfinkel, it seems, is a pyro, with access to exactly what you need to find out precisely how well one of them burns.
