Very nice looking. Please share the formula you are using.
BJV!

[PyroJoeNEPA]

Very nice. Looking forward to the formula.

[crackerbomb]

looking good, I'd finish it with a bang

It looks a bit slaggy. I don't know how you expect anyone to really help or offer suggestions if you're going to try to keep formulas somewhat secretive.

[californiapyro]

yeah true, okay here's the "working formula"

27 potassium perchlorate
22 potassium nitrate
21 charcoal
9 strontium carbonate
8 parlon
5 red gum
5 titanium
4 magnalium
3 sulfur
5 dextrin

it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't, having problems with moisture content/binder.

Thanks californiapyro,
Will play with your formula and see what I can come with.
Thanks for sharing,
BJV

Maybe put a little bit of crackle in it

[Hector]

Wow. That is an awesome tail.

[californiapyro]

thanks guys, hope you can come up with something worthwhile and more consistent :)

[BJV1]

Thanks for sharing your formula californiapyro.
I have one more question, what are the mesh sizes on
the Ti and mag/al.
Thanks again
BJV1

[californiapyro]

mg/al is as fine as possible, a fuel to the red. i used -200 mesh. Ti is +40/-100 or smaller than 40 bigger than 100 mesh. good luck!
