it means canister.
wow...
just...
wow...
the whole "60 gram can" is a bit of a misnomer.
you can't even have 60 grams in a shell legally because 20 of it has to be lift.
stars + break charge cannot exceed 40 grams.
"60 gram can's"...
when a shell blows out the center tube and blows that rack all to shit with lit shells in the tubes you'll wish you had used line racks instead of MCR's.
just sayin.
as i said earlier... i have...
yeah out of all the mortar materials (HDPE, fiberglass, cardboard) HDPE is the one most susceptible to this. if you fire 3 or 4 shells from an HDPE gun in a row then grab a hold of it you'll feel the...
sorry for the double post, but for some odd reason there is an editing time limit on posts you make here. odds are it is a default setting that someone never bothered to switch off...
i would have...
ahhh MCR's...
here's my honest opinion on them, take it or leave it...
MCR's are cheap and easy, but as with all things cheap and easy they aren't always the best solution...like duct...
i've heard good things about lidu 1.75's, single and double's... the double's that break color then salute are nice for finales too.
due to shoot site distances, sometimes the only shell you can use is a 1.75. it's also a very popular tube size that most pyro's tend to have...so why not make 1.3 shells to fit those guns?
...
try using primers ;)
simple rule of thumb with ball milling...
use a ball mill to break down a single chemical, or to mix black powder, beyond that it's much safer to screen compositions together.
i'm sure someone...
ha, ok dude, you're probably right. building racks in such a way as to minimize potential dangers and fail points is stupid. lets just build racks out of styrofoam and barbed wire, sounds like you...
dead wrong
there is far more potential for damage to the rack if the bottom rail is above the plug line. it's common sense.
if thats the case, i would bring it down 11mm.
sounds overkill but anything above the plug can and will blow out into your bottom rail if the bottom rail is above the plug.
just because the...
you are right, i don't want to know you, you come off as quite the douchebag...so i guess i catch your drift.
how can you possibly say this...
after saying something as absurdly childish and fail as this...
ironic post is ironic.
for starters, just so you know the difference in case you don't, "class B" is now called 1.3 and "class C" is 1.4.
if the 1.3 shells are "salutes", then of course they are going to be better than...
just to expand a bit on what davis was trying to say...
flash is dangerous if you don't know what you are doing, so if you don't know what you are doing, don't screw with flash. it's an easy rule...
it's hard to tell from the picture but if you lower the top of that bottom rail to just below the top of the plugs you eliminate the potential of a blowout transferring energy into the side rails.

typically longer guns are for multi-break and/or "salami" shells.
there are pro's and con's to the HDPE/fiberglass question.
personally i like HDPE but fiberglass guns are used by shooting...
not to stir the pot anymore than it already has been (seriously...nazi symbols??? really?) but the pyro community is often small and very close knit. if a guy decides to start selling his own system...
being in ohio should not matter if you already have verifiable contingency storage. the issue ohioans have is getting the contingency storage in the first place because there is a limited number of...
your best bet is just to lay 12 tubes out on a table and build from there, you don't even need a tape measure if you do it right.
