BUILDING A FIREWORK SHELL | Cinematic
Hello everyone, today I will show you how I made a 25 mm (1 inch) fireworks canister shell.
It was a small project with a great results. It take a few hours to make and is very enjoyable to look at.
If you want to know more about the process of making one of these, you can check this video where I show more in details the fabrication steps : czcams.com/video/OfPzT8mohos/video.html
The shell was filled with pumped, so called "sunrise yellow" stars. You can find the formula here : pyrodata.com/compositions/Sunrise-yellow
Note : The stars made from this formula require to be primed with black powder for proper ignition.
I hope you enjoyed the video. If so, don't forget to like, share and subscribe !!
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPRODUICE THIS WITHOUT PROPER SAFETY EQUIPEMENT OR TOOLS !!!
Big thanks to my brother for helping me shoot the video ;)
The choppiness in some of the clips is due to a bad shutter speed on the camera (1/100s instead of 1/125s at 60 fps). It looks bad (very bad in some clips) but I still wanted to share it on CZcams. Also, don't mind the bad framing during the test... I was looking at the firworks instead of the camera.

Hello everyone, today I will show you how I made a 50mm (2 inch) firework shell. I began by making the time fuse. For a shell this size I made a 2 seconds spolette wich consisted of a kraft paper tube ramed with black powder. I then formed the casing around a 40mm PVC pipe with 4/5 turns of thick paper. This leaves enough space to make the spiking and the pasting and still have about 4mm of cle...

    Never beat on any explosive powder.... not to mention you should never use metal tools as you should try to use copper because it doesn't conduct electricity like metal does.

    • @pyrojunkie8350

      @siimsimsiim Metal creates spark. If you're going to hit any two tools together they should probably be copper.

    • @pyrojunkie8350
      @pyrojunkie8350 Před 5 dny

      @siimsimsiim Also, I should have said that copper doesn't create electricity, not conduct. If you hit two metal tools, you're going to get Spark, but if you hit two copper tools together, you will not get spark.

    My apologies to the community guidelines but you seem to be a chemistry student who slept his way to a solid D in class! You're using a metal sifter to strain your powders (possible ignition source when using a steel mesh, use a readily available brass mesh if you want to live), you're storing all your materials together (ignore the idea of losing a finger, you're aiming for the loss of a lot more than a single digit) and you're using the bare bones basic of dope dealer scales for measuring (we're all too aware how inaccurate those can be) so, in my closing statement, STOP IT!! Run with scissors, don't look both ways before crossing, piss on an electric fence, you'll achieve the same adrenaline rush when you wake up but you will wake up.
