Low break for sure, all of the stars were in downward motion when the shell went off. Great job with the strobe stars and spiking though. Sounded like the low break was caused by a weak lift, no boom, sounded like all the gases escaped around the outside of the shell. I'd really like to know what you used in your strobe star comp.
Thanks. I pasted quite a lot over the spiking on this shell so it was actually quite tight fitting in the mortar. The weak lift I guess was just a underestimation on my part. I assumed I needed 1/10th of the shell weight but it was poor batch of BP so I should have used much much more.
lol this is an oldie,nice glitter and good cam tho

GREAT STARS!
Wrap another layer of kraft paper around the spiking though.
and use a longer delay, and maybe more lift!

good stars
one tip tho
after you spike your shell make sure to wrap an exxtra layer of paper over the spiking
other wise the lift charge often burns it and rips it a part making it useless
great shell tho!!

very nice stars :) Glitter and good purple. I have to do these stars. You should work on your burst and you should give more lift powder.

how much lift did you use for the shell, was it the 1/10 method of the shell weight to the amount of lift powder

Oh yea the stars were Winokur 20 glitter which is ....
48.00% Kno3
17.00% Sulfur
12.00% Magnalium (-200 mesh)
10.00% Charcoal (airfloat)
5.00% Sodium Bicarbonate
4.00% Iron Oxide (red)
4.00% Dextrin
Although similar, techinically its a glitter effect rather than strobe.

Eh me I prefer D1. That's a nice glitter though.
You have any advice on sulfate strobes if you've made em?
