KDirk - I’ve had things like that happen several times and yes it hurts, but I’m telling you they just don’t get it. Don’t take it personally. They...

Indeed, things like igniters and fuse will also be impacted. I have to wonder what effect this will have on Cobra, as I gather at least some...

@BMoore, I certainly understand all that, and I'm not really dependent on helper(s) to get the show setup. I can load my racks and do fusing on my...

A part of the reason it looks like I'm going to take a pass this year is because much of my family is not traveling to where I shoot. My niece is due...

Nothing hurts worse than having close family members who know this is "your day" not show up. Or a helper that you thought enjoyed this just as much...

I appreciate the encouragement. We've been doing family get togethers featuring my doing a fireworks show of some sort for several years now (since...

Hate to break it to you, but from where I’m standing, you are doing a large show. 216 cues plus chain fusing? That’s serious firepower. The only...

Clearly you guys are operating at a much higher level than I am, or even aspire to. I'm pretty much a one man show, getting minimal assistance from...

. . . . In my video I discussed above at the 10:55 mark, the tariff exemption for items of value less than $800.00 apparently is now closing to...

It’s definitely smart to have a Plan B, sounds like you’ve got your bases covered no matter how it plays out. I’m sure whatever you put together will...

You know your situation better then anyone. It will be interesting to see what happens with my plan. It could backfire too. I do have a backup plan...

Absolutely, I think most of us who’ve done this long enough have hit that “one man band” moment. You’ve nailed it: big vision means little...

Part of the problem is that fireworks are more of art form that requires craftsmanship then simply a feat of engineering. Even new sources of cheap...

Being mostly a one man crew I hit that point after my second e-fired show when I clearly bit off more then I could chew. I learned the biggest budget...

I’ve been hearing the same questions pop up lately: Should we start buying fireworks now for next year? Are prices going to keep rising? Will...

At this point, as bummed as I am about price increases, I'm more concerned about the long term effects on availability of product, and in stunting...

This is a YouTube channel that covers events in china. At a little over one minute into this video you will hear them discuss fireworks and the usual...

It is called Winda Trooper Turret. Winda Fireworks is one of my advertisers. They send me various new and sample fireworks . I see American Fireworks...

Thanks Dave! and where did you get that Roman candle setup? Anway, basically what you said, very correct. The sad part, is that if all of these...

I'm not. I'll have some left over product after this year, but I'm not going out of my way to stock up ahead for 2026. First of all, I use...

General consensus is yes, buy as early as possible. No one knows what the future holds. Product coming in now is subject to the tariff. Many have...

Why Firework Tariffs Don’t Bother Me Let’s get this out of the way yes, the tariffs on fireworks are real, and yes, they’re inconvenient, but no...

This years consumer product is -mostly- already on shore, but Cody B (yeah, I know) did a video the other day in which he conversed with numerous...
