Some shells from last week, I hope you like them.

Those are some really nice shells! What are the comps of the glitter stars, comets before the reports, and white flashers?

Amazing as usual, Zmuro!

 

Can you tell me a bit more about the last DP shell? What where the comps and break configurations? Thanks!

 

Also was wondering, what do you use for lift? As it always sounds like a salute going off :).

Nice stuff, nice IP, What burst carryer did you use between and in the middle?, and what size cavity former? (second 6" round)

My guess would be 3'' :).

 

Zmuro, one more question: was there a difference between the break of the first and second 6''? It appears to break different.

The glitter stars were D1, comet to report shell used 15mm ID x 50mm paper tubes with pressed slow BP + 10% titanium. The inserts have been drilled back for timing. The strobe stars were from spanish pdf.

Outer petal stars were TT (grill charcoal) + 10% titanium (250-500 mic). Pink stars used as cores were 8mm and the composition is:

Purple Star – FreakyDutchman

Potassium Perchlorate – 49,12

Strontium carbonate – 7

Copper Oxide – 6,14

Parlon – 13,15

Red gum – 10,5

MgAl – 10,5

Dextrin – 3,5

 

For lift I used homemade BP with alder buckthorn charcoal. The BP was wetted into a ball and then grated on cheese grater. The amount of lift used was measured by oz. per pound rule.

For burs I always use meal coated puffed rice in ration 4:1, the inner petal was 3" with 8mm pumped strobe stars and KP as break for inner petal. I use this setup for all my DP shells.

 

My guess would be 3'' :).

The only difference that I can recall is the outer stars were 14mm pumped + prime willow diadem stars and there hasn't been as much room for break.

Great shells! Hope to see more in the future.

It's a shame the comet to report was turned wrong. That would have really looked good.

That 5" Willow diadem was sooooo cool :wub:

 

 

How do you get such a long delay?

 

What kind of Ti, or TiFe did you use? And what mesh size did it have?

Flake or sponge?
