5 inch canister Golden Streamer / Fuchsia Pistil


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hi Guys,

 

I want to submit another shell to the contest, I fired this one last saturday.

 

It was a 5 inch canister with 78 x 20mm golden streamer comets with a fuchsia pink/purple pistil.

BP rice hulls and 20 gram flash booster.

1400 grams total

 

The way I filmed the shell is going to cost me some points I guess ;)

Some prefire pics.

 

The (old leftover) hulls on top where used as a last filler, under them are thouroughly coated hulls.

Thanks for the pictures, very nice. Did you leave the canulla in the shell?
Posted
Hi, I removed the canulle leaving a thin paper behind, I wrapped shoebox paper around the tube for easy removal and for keeping the booster/burst in place.

Fantastic and beautifull shell!! just by looking at it I would never guess it was a canister shell.Great job!!

Thanks dude!

 

I am going to make another one exactly the same way, but maybe I will use a green strobe as a pistil. But I am not sure cause I really like that pink color.

I like the pink color to, If you are making a shell with a green strobe pistil, try a farfalle. I've seen a movie of a double farfalle with green strobe pistil. That thing was magnificent.

You guessed right.

 

I don't use cut stars cause I hate that they are not exactly the same size.

Thanks dude, it was a golden streamer composition but I modified it with tons of Titanium flake and Titanium powder. I don't remember which composition it was. Stupid.

Congratulations, awesome shell! Did you spike the shell? How thick was the wall?

I've built some 4" Canister, but the breaks weren't as symmetric as yours!
