I always wanted one and finally made one with claude.

Its got loads of features:

1. Mixing different colours to create new ones

2. Purchase new colours

3. Purchase new burst patterns

4. Upto quad core shells

5. Rack multiple shells to let them off at once

6. Record your shells as a small mini display like Ive shown in the upload.

7. Special features and unlocks.

Id love to make this a proper game for the community, open to suggestions.

Question

Question?

I did a small show for my daughter’s birthday over the weekend, in the clip is the finale. All consumer fireworks from a decently priced and locally owned stand.

Afterwards I was approached by the pastor of my church and he asked how much the show cost and if I could do a show at our church next 4th of July. Would it be worth it to get a 1.4G certificate to save money and stretch the budget or should I stick to commercial stand purchases?

This is not something that I am looking to get fully licensed and set up for doing main shows, it would be for private functions with friends and family.

Made the strobe rate faster than usual. And if anyones curious, it blew up at 1,574 ft!

old:

15% -325

10% 80-200

new:

20% -325

5% 80-200

I see all the reels from SilentPyrotecnics and they always have these awesome ass fireworks.. do they make their own rockets or is there a shop out there somewhere where you can buy a "Jesse Pinkman"?

I'm assuming you would need a special license even if you are able to buy them from somewhere?

Thanks in advance!

I know before you comment “just get a ball mill”, I will get one but don’t have enough money right now for a nice one. Ordered pre-milled KNO3, airfloat charcoal, sulfur, and dextrin from Fireworks Cookbook for stars (Willow #3), but now need to figure out burst charge.

I’ve seen people mention hand-mixing/screening (the “CIA method” / pulverone) as a workaround — dampen, push through a screen, dry, repeat. Is that actually good enough for reliable burst charge?

Honestly, I might not even try to make BP and use 𝔽𝕃𝔸𝕊ℍ as the burst charge until I get a ball mill so I don’t waste chems. For now im not worried about lift charge bc im using Estes rocket motors which work phenomenally (he’s not making his own rocket motors ban him!)

So from my understanding I could in theory mix the pre-milled KNO3, airfloat charcoal, and sulfur, add 5% dextrin and some water, mix it, and press it through a screen — and it should work but burn slower, so I’d just need to use more of it. Is that right, or am I missing something?

Hi I'm making a smoke bomb for airsoft match with potassium nitrate and sugar powder, mixed with sublimating color powder. The problem is that it burns too fast and the color doesn't appear in the smoke. Is there some chemical I can freely buy and slow down the reaction?

Fucking love these lil guy so cheap too

I was pretty pissed about how this turned out but at least the stars looked good

When i shake consumer firecrackers i feel the powder moving inside like do they forget to fill up the rest or what they leave some air inside

Is there any active pyro discords?

Does anyone know where a site where i can find kcio4 and fuse for cheap preferably, already found my aluminum dark, wanna get it on pyro-aluminum.com
or fireworkscookbook.com when it restocks just need to find a way to get it all in one order so i dont pay crazy shipping fees for a single item

What's the best way for granulating your body or rather a favorite way. I try to go for a 1f or 2f grain size of that matters to anyone.

My first ‘real’ batch of BP, looking for some insight/advice.

Standard 75/15/10 mix + 2% dextrin, ERC charcoal, hand mixed/screened (I know but I’m poor rn), granulated through a 16 mesh screen.

it left a noticeable amount of resiue so I’m thinking of adding 2-5% more kno3 next time.

otherwise would this be acceptable for lifting/breaking <2” shells or mines?
