Andres1511 Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 For the micro star fountain, I would go with C sparks instead of Ti/Al. You can't really see the microstars... Pretty heavy candle btw, and nice giant fountains.
sora Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 Great ones Pyrodoc, wishing you a very happy Diwali
BengalFlair Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 In the long run you have made some nice fireworks..!! Well done pyrodoc..!! ..But where is that 'aerial shells'!!?
pyrodoc Posted December 3, 2015 Author Posted December 3, 2015 This is my first attempt at shells making. All are three inch ball shells with scrap cloth used for pasting. In two shells the spollete time was 4 seconds and in others it was 3 seconds. The burst charge was mepco 999 Al based. Lift powder was 60gm in each mortar. My main concern was to make the shell reach a proper height and not to go blind. Now, I can concentrate on priming stars properly
pyrodoc Posted December 3, 2015 Author Posted December 3, 2015 In one of the pics I was checking the clearance between mortar tube and shell.
pyrodoc Posted December 4, 2015 Author Posted December 4, 2015 ok What was the clearance?Just enough for the ball shell to slide down with its own weight. Around 1.5mm approx
