That's exactly what I was trying to upload an image of

Did that rack look anything like this?

edit: I can't seem to upload the image even after shrinking it down to under 1MB

Yeah, I guess I'll say it a third time, I'm happy to shoot electric, I'd just be EVEN happier to shoot hand fired. Thanks for the reply.

I'm not just some kid that thinks blowing stuff up is cool. As long as I can remember I've been amazed by fireworks and I was always curious about what was going on down there on the ground and...

Oh, I'll work on as many shows as I can, just my town show is the one I really have my heart set on if nothing else, but I'm by no means trying to get into this with the intention of working on just...

I have a hunch who the company might be, based on your location, and if I'm correct, that doesn't surprise me. It seems like they've always been a little different, less old school than other huge...

Yeah maybe I'll try that if Zambelli turns out to be unsatisfactory.

Heck yeah I want to light stuff! I'm still gonna try to work for them, but that is a bit of a bummer to find out I'll only rarely if ever hand-light anything. Yes, MA banned hand-firing, the...

This guy on youtube I watch who works on shows for Pyrotechnico here in CT (the channel is drfirebird64) said in his most recent fireworks video that as of 2022, Pyrotechnico shoots ALL shows 100%...

This was my very first introduction to the concept of how fireworks were made quite a few years ago—hadn't even the slightest clue of what was going on up there during displays before I watched this.

How much of a heads up do you usually get for a show? A few weeks? A month? A few months?

Ok thanks for the advice

I think they know young guys like me are just dying to get on a show and don't even care about making anything the first time or two, but after that I'll definitely need to start making something. ...

That's pretty stupid but I'll take it over driving 8 hours to New Castle, PA. Aside from the nonsense, I think the online training is a lot better than an in person course as it's extremely...

Yeah I mean the cheer of the crowd is what it's all about

Oh yes. I'm very aware it's 95% HARD work and 5% "fun". Just for people like us, that 5% fun is well worth the 95% work. If you think it's all fun after watching Dave's videos, then you probably...

Most of my family is in SC so we visit pretty often, I'm actually there right now. Naturally, I took advantage of fireworks being legal, unlike CT, and got a bunch of stuff. Mostly shells as cakes...

No, September, so the earliest I'd start would be the 2024 season. I'm pretty confident I wouldn't learn anything new from training after watching so many of your videos, I just thought it was...

Hello! I live in Connecticut and will be turning 18 later this year. I've been fascinated by fireworks as long as I can remember, and always thought it'd be cool to be one of those people down...
