it's fine to go short like 3ft igniters if you know your distance to modules. I use 3ft for my pyrolama and medusa racks because my slat/modules are within a foot of the single shots. Using even...

Birdman is right. Red and Green go-getters from So76. Nice quiet effect and good color, timing was a little inconsistent in that a few of the cakes ended 5-10 sec early.

It is very motivating to...

Just wanted to share my July 4th show. Plenty of minor mistakes and need to work on big shell angles. I had one 1.3g cake stop half way through, I guess a bad internal fuse...that was a first. ...

my 4in chains this year were 3 sec delay. not counting lift time of first shell, total effect time of 17-18 sec

3 seconds would probably be close for the smaller cakes, maybe 2 secs for ignition and little over a second for lift time. For bigger cakes lift time can be longer up to 3 seconds for a total of 4-5...

I agree with this. Much quicker. I group the smaller cakes together and tape them, no need on 500g cakes and above.

pyrolama is nice because it is light and can speed things up if you use the expensive italia product that has the correct base otherwise you have to use X holders which takes up more space/doesn't...

I'm sure you can make it really complicated but I have kept it simple with using products that have macros with finale3D. really simplifies the entire process. The only way I have found out how to...

I shoot my shows out of my own pocket for family and friends just because I enjoy it and it brings people together. right now my shows are about 300 shells of 3/4/5/6in and I'm expanding my 8in...

that's what I was looking for. thanks. weight isn't an issue because I use a tractor with a fork lift to move all racks, don't want to screw up my back. In my area no one comes out to inspect,...

appreciate the info. I'm using hdpe which makes me a little more comfortable doing it. Will probably go with 4 to a rack unless Texas regulates it.

I'm having trouble finding the regulations on the number of tubes allowed in racks. I thought I remember reading that 8in shells can be fired from racks if being fired electronically and if so does...

can I borrow your kids for new years?

Good thoughts, I have never thought about keeping the main fuse away from the top of the mortars but it makes sense. appreciate the feedback

My failure this year was also similar to the OP in that it involved my racks...just a different flaw. I cut to expose the gun powder in the visco fuse and talon clip those areas, this year I had 100...
