Ill see if I can get the videos done this weekend. Again:HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Updup Posted January 1, 2010 Posted January 1, 2010 Well done everyone, seems like all your shows went pretty well!Mine was a flop, but still fun, the main problem was the amount of slag from my TT stars (The few that DID light) I also need harder breaks. Live and learn! Better luck next year. Happy new year guys! UpDUp Also, the the second youtube video, what a great strobe effect!
andyboy Posted January 1, 2010 Posted January 1, 2010 I have to admit to a mistake I made, a stupid rookie one at that. I broke my shells with BP on hulls, guess what happened to the blue Ammonium Perchlorate stars.
Ventsi Posted January 1, 2010 Posted January 1, 2010 (edited) Vent, how did your multibreak go? I must say it went pretty darn good, timing on the inserts was perfect , could have used a tad more booster at the height I sent it, but t'was good. How was yours? I'm not sure what I should do, should I put up the videos one by one on YT, or should I try and make a full on movie? Edit, Andyboy, thats funny, a bit sad that such nice blues went to waste, did anyone get hit by the '"mud'" balls? Edited January 1, 2010 by Ventsi

Thanks! D
Ventsi Posted January 1, 2010 Posted January 1, 2010 Ventsi, Can you post them here and pyrobin? I have very limited access to YT. Thanks! D I'd rather not, my camera has good quality filming, meaning some VERY big files 15 MB min. How about PhotoBucket? If not I'l put them up on PyroBin, it'd just be a hassle for people to watch them. Plus you'd have to get a special CODEC just to watch the freaky file type.

Didnt think about the CODEC issue. I convert from MPG4 to MOV or AVI before posting so even the non-Mac people can watch them. D
firetech Posted January 1, 2010 Posted January 1, 2010 Vent, I haven't shot mine yet. I'm glad to hear yours went well. I'll be going to my shoot site in the next week or so for my display. I'll fire it then. Post the vid on APC. The mods got more space for that specifically.
Klaaskroegbaas Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 This are the only shells i filmed this year. Two 4 inch shells. Bow tie and D1

Ventsi Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Here's my fare share: All shells were cans. Mines: my favorites:
andyboy Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Andyboy, thats funny, a bit sad that such nice blues went to waste, did anyone get hit by the '"mud'" balls? Not all of the stars failed though, just not the full breaks that I hoped for. I think that some of stars where protected by the prime (NC/KP) but some had cracks that let the Potassium Nitrate mix with the Ammonium Perchlorate. To answer your question, there where some fall-out from the shells but no one complained, thankfully. I'll try to get some pictures of the shells, someone was taking pictures although it was a friend of a friend.
scarbelly Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 Chris, you call those outtakes?! Those were wonderful! And Ventsi, I really liked all of your stuff. I liked the kamikaze shell - "Awww shit..."The crossette mine was fantastic, as was the double break and everything else.
lokys Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 this is my pyro stuff : not so many, but this is my first time then I used shell`s Rack`s, there was some mistakes, I have adjusted video.
vladou Posted January 3, 2010 Author Posted January 3, 2010 (edited) Here is the most of my stuffs I lighted. Pretty lame.. I wasn't able to shoot my 3" shells because I didn't receive my 3" mortar except my 3" salute shell which made a nice hole in the ground. I also wasn't able to make more 4" shells because I didn't have enough burst charge.. I didn't use my D1 glitter and Winokur 31 to make stars so I used them for a conic fountain but it wasn't a good idea. My granite stars looked like crap, Ofca silver flitter didn't looked silver (because I didn't put any Ba(NO3)2 I think) and most of the stars didn't light. I made 4 hummers to report inserts for a mine but only one lighted. My 4" ruby red to emerald green shell failed because not enough prime. Edited January 3, 2010 by vladou
riccog125 Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Hopefully next year i'll have a little time to make my own instead of buying commercial

NightHawkInLight Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 I've been sick for the better part of two weeks, unfortunately in no shape for building. I just lit a few inserts on a fence post.
Pretty green flame Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 New year piro party: Really cool stuff you've made there.
