I had a hell of a time getting product. Had to go to my 4th or 5th option for much of my display. My last few cases didn't make it to the warehouse until 6/29.

I had 7 cakes not fire [ 6 of them due to internal fusing] out of 200. That doesn't sound too bad, but I usually only have 1 or 2.

Birdman..you're right on track with the caulking idea. Get yourself the cheapest acrylic latex caulk you can find and stick those cakes down. It doesn't take much; just four
dime sized blobs at...

I'd rather not say. I don't want to hurt this vendors business.

I still don't know. Apparently, wooden racks bounce like some on here say milk crates do.
This rack was purchased from a well-respected on-line vendor. It had a large footprint and

This! If they really have a gram and a half, light em with a big grin on your face!

For this years show I had 28 boards and 15 mortar...

Through the years, I've transported my pre-fused racks in a pick up, a van and the last few years in a friends
20 foot race car trailer because my show has gotten so big.
I used to cross state...

I've been transporting pre-fused racks for over 20 years. Never a problem. Of course you have to keep them upright,but that's easy.

Thank you.

When I was a kid firecrackers were noticeably louder. I know today they're
limited to 50 mg of flash, but how much was packed into Black Cats and
Thunder Bombs in the 60's and 70's?
