Aussie Gold Sparkler Bomb - New Years Eve 2010

With a little bit of effort, you can turn gold sparklers into something impressive.

(skip to 1:31 if you want to see the explosion)

I used to make these nearly every weekend when I was a youngin'. Now I'm lucky to make one once a year. Still gives you a good rush letting one of these bad boys off.

Cheers mate, I've also been experimenting with foil because it dosent burn like the tape does. Without the foil, I've found if you don't have enough tape around the top, all the pressure escapes where the fuse was poking out the top and it just flares (loudly though). I'll give that a shot though. Thanx :D

Nice, with the 48er, what did you do differently? Just heaps of tape on the top or what?
