They have a very small vent for the gases that the burning fuel produces, this creates a lot of thrust from the vent and the vents position causes the hummers to spin off axis very fast creating the zipping sound and propulsion.
Thanks, it was supposed to be a pot. Mines are shells that just shower their effects straight out of the mortar. I like mines but hummers are a pain to make.
Oh. I wouldn't have thought that a fuse would have ignited from the lift charge. It wasn't visco I assume?
Thanks for answering my inept questions :-)
Its harder to find simple basics like that on most websites, people are always building on what they already know on most forums, so inevitably the basics are lost in all the advanced jabber, thats why I kind of liked PyroGuide. Not a lot there, but it covers the basics.
crazy sound ^^

I think they were 3/8" ID inserts, about an inch and a quarter.

Is it a 4" cylinder shell with like 15 1/2" hummer inserts?
I tried mine w\ blackmatch fuses on hummer and it came out decently... But I don't really have anything to add for sparks...

It has a fuse going through the vent, that is how it ignites.
cplmac2 4 years ago
So.... That means its basically a fuseless hummer... haha!
Xenodius 4 years ago
No a hummer insert is basically a sealed tube with an off center vent that causes it to spin off center making a pretty cool sound.
cplmac2 4 years ago
That was awesome!! Those were like, pillbox stars... right?
