Roll your own mortar tubes?


Recommended Posts

I've been scrounging various sizes of stout shipping tubes but have yet to find the right size for my Easter eggs. Have you guys ever rolled your own mortar tubes?

Lots of extra layers and an over wrap of strapping tape should make for a very strong tube.

Yes! You can roll your own and you dont need to add the strapping tape. A 1/4" wall is good and a good plug of wood with nails or screws will keep in the pressure. What is the OD of your eggs ready to fire? HDPE may be available for your size.
