  • spoko szeleczka

  • ,,AAAAWWWSOOOMEEEE"

  • nice :)

  • Question

    Is it safe to tape one of the end of the fuse from the firework throw some BP on te tapek and pute another fuse on te end of the tape?

  • this was probably one of the best large salutes i have ever seen great job!

  • dude that was sick!

  • Cool!

  • That was really cool, i want to know how to make it

  • That was pretty kool. i like how you made it crackle at the end

  • pretty hardcore stuff..

  • AWSOME!!

  • beautiful starmine salute....i like how you incorporated the salutes into the mine...pretty wicked...

  • @Rampede aah, that's a sweet BAE hawk, I love that plane :)

    The salutes just sit on the lift charge, with stars in the midle and on top.. This mine used a piston as well to really get them up good and evenly.

  • @Swervedriver71

    Lol, i thought so too, i wish it was mine lol

    what do you mean you use a piston to get them up, man i made 8 .5"x3" starmines last night and unfortunately didnt put enough lift in them......only one did what it was supposed to the other ones stars only went maybe 20 feet....but that other one easily hit 50.....it amazes me that even a tiny starmine like the ones i make look that good lol

  • @Swervedriver71 what do you mean by used a piston?

  • @Rampede hey, I missed your question. Oh well, better late than never. A piston is like a 3" long, round cylindrical plug of thick cardboard below the stars/inserts/effects/whatever that evenly pushes up from below, a "piston" is exactly what it is. It sits on top of the lift charge and under the stars, etc. It has holes through it to allow some of the lift gases to pass through and ignite the effects sitting on top of the piston. The purpose is to lift everything evenly and a bit higher up

  • i have been playing around with zinc stars trying to make the zinc spreader stars but I can never make them so they break apart they just burn through. do you have any ideas?

  • @PoopSwindler

    are you talking about crossttes?

  • @PoopSwindler Hey I know what you mean, it has a lot to do with the zinc comp used, and the amount of binder in it. The "granite stars" don't spread much. Try Degn's zinc spreader #15, it throws little pieces of zinc away from the star. The additional charcoal does need to be 36-40 mesh in size to do it correctly-

    Zinc Powder 20

    Potassium Nitrate 7

    Charcoal Airfloat 2

    Sulfur 1.5

    Charcoal, 40 mesh 1.5

    Dextrin 0.5

  • nice shot.keep up the good work :)

  • i though granite stars burnt teal/green. well, that is if they are zinc granite stars.

  • very nice!

  • very nice! 5*

  • very nice i enjoyed the salutes so what about the placement of a comet where would you put it? top bottom or middle?

  • @panzuman thanks bud. hmm, I guess you could put it mixed in with the stars on top of the salutes

  • ok just want proper ignition i mean a comet is like 10 stars in one

  • Very nice starmine!!! I would love to see an emerald green with Ti salutes.

  • what is a star?

  • This video is not a great example but a pyrotechnic star is a small ball made out of powder that generate an effect once they fly away.

    A small roman candle shoots stars usually one by one.

  • 0:13 Pottato

  • cool! lol AWEEEEESOMMMEEEEE!

  • That's a nice idea to put crackers into the starmine. I"il try with my next starmine! *5

  • I do agree with everyone else, very nice starmine buddy. This may be my next project after my 3 inch canister salutes. What size were your salute inserts?
