Be careful with storage of fireworks you make. You do not need a license to make fireworks in United States if you are making them for your own personal use. If you sell them, for profit you will need a license. However, the storage requirement for large fireworks are the same if they are for your own personal use or for profit. That is a whole different story. Welcome to the forums.

Yes that is why I do. Not make anything larger than a 6" shell unless I use same day I also don't store salutes
