VikingPyrotechnics Posted July 13, 2013 Posted July 13, 2013 Hi guys,here is a 4 "multi Salute. There is a ring of seven reports, and then4 single reports. Unfortunately, I have, apparently, the Timefuse for the individual reportsincorrectly measured and cut. Because, at the same time 3 lit, and then the last. All in all, still very nice to see and hear. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlADczuJKrA Greets and have a nice weekend VP
fredhappy Posted July 13, 2013 Posted July 13, 2013 hehehe...you've got to love those cylinders...nicely done! best fred
JFeve81 Posted July 14, 2013 Posted July 14, 2013 Nice shell. I've got a 4" I'm wanting to shoot as well but with the fire danger I'm airing on the side of caution and waiting for rain. May I ask what you made the reports out of and what did you fill them with. Seemed like a nice deep tone from them. Mine always seem to be a high pitched crack as opposed to that nice deep tone.
VikingPyrotechnics Posted July 14, 2013 Author Posted July 14, 2013 yep fred, with these cylinders you can make soo much. @ JFeve81 for the reports I use very thick tubes and plugs. I thinkthe stronger the confinement, the deeper the tone. Greets VP
fredhappy Posted July 14, 2013 Posted July 14, 2013 #viking: do you use 7/3 for reports? Since you emphasize strong confinement I am in doubt. Did you make the mascleta in the picture too? I am very interested in that article, it seems you did a beautifull job. Did you fire it already? best fred
VikingPyrotechnics Posted July 15, 2013 Author Posted July 15, 2013 Yes fred, it is 7/3. But I use slightly coarser aluminum.Yep, I built the Traca. Mascleta is a whole show from tracas. I've already fired. But, one of the firecrackers had the chaindemolished and went out from the half. Here's the video of it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8IPKJziXKA GreetsVP 1
fredhappy Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 (edited) vp: how very cool!! How did you attach the quickmatch to the crackers? Did you add some kind of delay in the form of a not? I know they sell these strings commercially, but I ve always wondered how one can make one himself. Did you just pour the flash in the tube and used kraft and string to tie a not to prevent leakage of the flash?? thanks! fred Edited July 15, 2013 by fredhappy
VikingPyrotechnics Posted July 15, 2013 Author Posted July 15, 2013 Here is a Video how i build this Traca http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9akaB4CM1Q GreetsVP
fredhappy Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 (edited) #vinking: excellent stuff bro!!!!! I am going to order those tubes+plastic plugs asap, I need to build me one of those.. I am afraid we differ quite a bit in the music department, no problem, it's all good..hehe My girlfriend likes your music a lot... thanks again, we really need to meet up sometime. fred Edited July 15, 2013 by fredhappy
VikingPyrotechnics Posted July 15, 2013 Author Posted July 15, 2013 Thank you Fred. You just have to love rock / metal. Oh yes, we definitely need to meet. GreetsVP
WonderBoy Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 Nice shell VP. Too bad about the last four, what happened? WB
dynomike1 Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 I didn't see the traca shoot but i liked the music. Don't feel bad i have missed timed my fuses to.
