54Shots FS/ZS multieffect+finale


Recommended Posts

Allright, so this is my first post in this section.

 

Last newyears-eve I fired my home-made cakebox and it was not realy a succes I guess.

The fuse i've used has a burningtime about 40sec/meter.

I used like 1.50 meter in the whole cake, so I tought it would burn for 90 seconds or so.

 

Eventualy the whole thing was shooting like a maniac and 20sec later it was done..

Dont know exactly why, but I think I had to expand the spaces between the tubes for extra delay.

 

Well it was pretty cool though, but it went so fast, that I can't rember the effects in the sky anymore :P

 

And besides.. Not every cake-insert went off..

Well.. Take a look at the video and see it for your self :P

 

This are the pre-fire pics:

(Took me about 7 weeks to fix lol)

 

Allright, so at the end somewere the camare stopped during the finale delay. So the finale part is somehow not there, but you can hear/see three loud bangs that was part of the finale :P

 

Anyway, cheers ;)

Wow...that is a TON of inserts to make. You must be a dedicated pyro :)

 

Too bad the camera cut off...I would have liked to see all 54 shots.

Looks to me more like you took apart some commercial cakes and fused them together to your liking.

To be fair I did think the same looking at the first few pics. Good to see recycling of commercial tubes there - very environmentally friendly : )
