    I like the little paper Dixie for larger quantities. I use disposable plastic teaspoons a lot.

    I have been enjoying your series. I have been doing professional pyrotechnic displays for a few years and I am looking into making my own in the future.
    You might want to look into weighing by difference since it makes it easier to accurately weight with less chance of contamination.
    Thanks for making this series!

    What kind of material should the mixing tub, for star compositions (any and all kinds) be made of?

      I use stainless steel pots, and/or plastic buckets/lids.

    I've been watching some of your videos and it's pretty amazing I had no idea thier was so much that goes into making fireworks I've always been fascinated with fireworks and would like to do small shows and possibly make fireworks also I'm wondering how long it takes to get a ATF approval

      One can get a User's Permit or Manufacturing License within a few months, from the ATF, Eric, as long as all the ducks are in a row. Good luck.

      Fireworks keeps us humble, Eric. I've had as many failures as successes on the way to making some satisfying devices. I think that any fireworker who has had any success would say the same. It is an art which most folks would say about "man, I had no idea anyone could even do themselves..." But, it can be a fulfilling art/hobby if one pursues carefully with dedication. Best, ned

      yeah, if you have $800.00 to spare for manufacturing license.

      @@garymoore9650, 800 is only a scratch if your caught doing it illegally. Hell I'm working part time labor and 800 isnt that much to spare, if you do a great job you can also do shows, and shows even small ones mean some money.

      A 40-mesh screen works well for that, AW.
