4" Roundshell TEST - With Timed Reports - 1" Crossette as Rising Comet

[jismad1]

0:16 Something about Alah :D

[skyisthelimitinc]

@jismad1 I think not, its the word shell you hear;)

[sPanitify]

0:14 i love that sound :D

[basementbomber]

Timing shells / reports is very difficult.

Good enough for me to subscribe...

Looking forward to your future projects.

[skyisthelimitinc]

@basementbomber Well thanks for those kind words, it sure is hard to make that timing perfect.

[cornercat]

but wheres the crosette?

[skyisthelimitinc]

@cornercat Its the rising comet you see split into 4 bits when the shell is on its way up.

[extrasonic]

Use BM next time to prime the inserts. Check out the report inserts tutorial on the APC forum. I'm not sure if this chinese fuse lights as reliably as BM.

[skyisthelimitinc]

@extrasonic ill use crossed (X) bm next time, not the single as you see on the photos,but the timefuse is the best around, its the same as the pro´s use ;)

[nwfklan]

you need better timeing next time.

[skyisthelimitinc]

@nwfklan Well, 5 reports going off within 0.1 sec, i think the timing was acceptable, but hey, thanks for your positiv input......

[nwfklan]

@skyisthelimitinc You know, i didnt mean anything bad by saying that, but the timeing could have been better..i've seen many of your vids, some are good, but some of your fireworks totally fail too *no offence*.. better luck next time.. when i buy a shell, i expect it to explode when its at its highes point in the air to make it spread in a nice circle, no when its almost back on the ground :P

Im not saying youre a bad pyrotechnician, but you can get better... Disagree? its ok, I might be wrong.

[skyisthelimitinc]

@nwfklan No problem,it was my first try with the chinese timefuse,i believe i will improve much on my next tries, i also show the testing/failures as the honest guy i am, i could just put up my perfect work and let the viewers think i never make wrongs, but i dont think that would be fair to all of you, agree?

[Booger6995]

@skyisthelimitinc Absolutely. Your failures lead to success. Still, a lot of people don't realise this. You gotta break a whole s_load of eggs to make an omelot. I like the trial videos. When you get to the end you get the big surprise. It worked as designed. Cool stuff. Keep posting updates. I will watch with interest and admiration.

Wish I had the space to do this regularly. The club is great but having your own is much better. L8R

[gman03887]

@skyisthelimitinc I think the timing on those reports was more than acceptable,, it was exceptional. I also think if you look closely, you have 6/10 reports that go off. The bottom left report is actually 2 and not 1. I could be wrong, but that's what it looks like to me. The biggest question is,, can you repeat your tight timing consistently?

[skyisthelimitinc]

@gman03887 You are absolutely right, 6 went of when i look a few times, this was good news for me, i need better priming on the inserts, and the timefuse is cut by hand, and that makes it very difficult to hit it exact, now im making a fuse cutter so they will be identical (hopefully) and my next timed report shell will be slightly different when it comes to priming, ill cross my fingers for a better result, thanks alot for the good input, always nice to hear some positive feedback.

[propyropower]

youknow, why wherent there more star inserts ?

i also think at hand of this awesome test you could a better burst media :P

MCRH - Meal Coated Rice Huls.

lighter,same force,more breaking speed by the enlarged openings trough the rice huls shape, bit more fp and ole :P

cheers lad

for this one a cold one down youknow what ;)

[skyisthelimitinc]

@propyropower I used meal coated puffed rice, and the other half of the shell were packed with what i tried to be a shaped thingy, it looks like its full of bp but under there, my 16mm Ti stars sits;)

[skyisthelimitinc]

@skyisthelimitinc If you look at 0:50 you see the Ti stars and even the 5 winokur stars i used;)

[skyisthelimitinc]

@propyropower Also a spoonful of whistlemix with the break charge, the fault here was the matching of the timefuse in the reports, this(timed reports) and the rising crossette was the main testing, so i really didnt make to much effort in both pasting the shell and filling it with more then 10 reports;)

Im now working on a pure crossette shell, not more then 12 crossettes in there, im tuning in things for nye you know,hehe

[propyropower]

@skyisthelimitinc sounds good, on the timed reports i think i can help you out :P

[skyisthelimitinc]

@propyropower All help and tips appriciated mate

[DownUnderPyro]

awesome job mate

[Mnemotron2010]

Nice!

[BrightLightPyro]

Great E!! The crossette was perfect, to bad about some reports blowing blind, but hey it's trail and error.Maybe next time a double crossmatch? Still a great shell! +

[skyisthelimitinc]

@BrightLightPyro Hey mate, long time no see;) yea, i should punch one more hole in them, next time my friend, next time;)

[BrightLightPyro]

@skyisthelimitinc Or two matches in one slightly bigger hole, otherwise you might get timing problems.

[skyisthelimitinc]

@BrightLightPyro True, i even think of just priming the timefuse, its a couple of ways to do it, ill think about it

[panzuman]

the shell seemed pretty good id give it a 4/5

[skyisthelimitinc]

@panzuman Well thanks for that, considering its over a year ago i made a 4" ;)

[vh718]

that was so cool, i love your shells.

[skyisthelimitinc]

@vh718 Nice of you, im back into the game again, my shells will improve fast;)

[gandelff999]

really impressive fella,your definatley getting better every shell cant wait to see the next one

[skyisthelimitinc]

@gandelff999 Then you dont have to wait for months like this, im planning a new improved already next weekend

[rovingrepairbot]

Very good once again! Thanks for this video!

[skyisthelimitinc]

@rovingrepairbot Cheers mate, sorry for not having the time, but soon, very soon

[sparksnsky]

Always nice to see your new ideas!

[skyisthelimitinc]

@sparksnsky Always nice to create also;)

[KMnO4dalla]

veldig fin :)

[skyisthelimitinc]

@KMnO4dalla Takk for den du;)

[daron69]

anyone who dislikes this is a penut

bluddy awesome you take time to make and it pays off in the end well done 5 out of 5

[skyisthelimitinc]

@daron69 Thanks alot daron, it sure was time consuming, but i enjoy those builds;)

[s7vendays11]

wow, very nice

[skyisthelimitinc]

@s7vendays11 Well thank you;)

[propyropower]

holy **** thats awesome, real nice man !!!

Thumbs up big time !

[skyisthelimitinc]

@propyropower Cheers, it looked, sounded and smelled good ;)

[theartilerysheller1]

i like the crossette comet,  it looked like another break

[skyisthelimitinc]

@theartilerysheller1 It sure did, it was a nice pre effect before the main event;)

[allrocketspsl]

wow so far no dislikes,lol!Ive been super busy so finally things have calmed down.great shell mate,I prime my insert fuses with bp/silicon always lights them up,I also loosen the time fuse a little seems to help,is that puffed rice with bp?Loved the crossette breaking up,that high speed is something thumbs up all the way and two pints,imperial pints at that

[skyisthelimitinc]

@allrocketspsl Hehe, thanks mate, i also thought id prime the timefuse next time, cause that paper fuse crossmatch was not successful on the inserts, but it worked well on the shell delay, yes, puffed rice, and some ordinary granulat

[airs0ftMARIZON]

im also very happy with the result good work man!

[skyisthelimitinc]

@airs0ftMARIZON Thanks alot mate, finally i found a good break charge for the crossette and that timefuse is a winner;)
