As long as you're just looking for regular aluminum powder and not dark aluminum, it can be bought online. As for the water bottles, winter break I'm sure your brother and I will have fun :)
Actully, black powder is considered a low explosive. The trick between getting it to simply burn and actually explode is the amount of pressure applied.
Detonation is easy, any fuse or electronic ignition works.
fuse wont work otherwise you confine it (; and im not sure about electronic ignitor because that makes friction ... and AM detonates by friction but deflagrates by flame.... but i found out that sulfurless BP have about 1300 m/s det. rate and normal BP have about 4-500 m/s det rate.. weird?
Fuse works, so long as you pack it right. for the few charges we detonated that way, we melted a fuse right into the side of the pill bottle-canister to ensure a good seal. As for electric ignitors, they work well enough (the majority of charges above used them). Remember, we weren't trying to make real bombs, just visually appealing explosives :)
