Yahbut he only wants to amke "a small amoun of baking powder".

Most folks would just buy a can of baking powder but If price is no object there's a recipe or DIY baking powder he
http://www.wikihow.com/Make-Substitute-Baking-Powder

"Optionally, you may create and store a powdered baking powder substitute for use at a later date. Combine your cream of tartar and baking soda in a 2:1 ratio as you normally would, then add a quantity of cornstarch equal to the amount of baking soda you added. The cornstarch will absorb moisture from the air, preventing the baking soda and cream of tartar from reacting prematurely."
