tentacles Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 Mix it with BP, ala benzolift rockets. Dan Creagan has some info on his site - www.wichitabuggywhip.com/fireworks Adding 10% lampblack probably killed the power because it ruined the oxygen balance in a big way. Maybe trying subbing 1-2% charcoal/lampblack for the same amount of whistle fuel.

psyco_1322 Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 There looking nice Zmuro. Out of curiosity, whats you spindle dimensions? Sounds like a benzoate fuel, nice and raspy.

superman1451 Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Heres a whistle rocket I made a while ago I'm kind of amazed it worked. This was when I didn't have a press so I made it in a bench press, pressing to when I felt that it was about to break.
