Arthur Posted September 18, 2022 Posted September 18, 2022 The issue seems to be that you want towards a sfx squib which in the UK may be T2 but most others on the forum want lots of flash and fire to pass fire to a firework fuse and don't want the bang.
cmjlab Posted October 1, 2022 Posted October 1, 2022 (edited) So to beat the horse a bit more.... I was reading through old FW.com forums, and the copper oxide / thermite squib discussion (from 2014), talks about a gel capsule (like a pill capsule) filled with Copper thermite over an ematch, and dipped in fiberglass resin was being used as a squib .... If anyone had a hankering to try, the resin would certainly provide more containment in a still small package.... Charles Edited October 1, 2022 by cmjlab
dave321 Posted October 2, 2022 Author Posted October 2, 2022 not quite the size of an ematch blank, and copper thermites tend to produce loads of copper metal vapour and sparks. but as a larger squib i have no doubt it would work, depending on the effect you wanted to create.
