first shell


memo

Recommended Posts

made my first rin'd shell today and set it off. it worked great. the inserts I was testing all blew blind. really nice not having to wait for the past to dry took about 2 hours to make and launch the shell. really great for testing. forgot to add the shitty video

It`s more than likely the inserts were not sealed up well enough to withstand the internal pressure of the break. I had this happen once.

That's what I was on about. Wall thickness, how rigid, and how well sealed. If those are all good, then the only other things I know of after that is reducing the burst comp, and/or less paste layers/spiking.

I am using spollette tubes that are 3/8 id and 1/2 od . the are rolled out of 70 lb virgin kraft and are plenty stiff. changed the way I sealed the end. now a piece of tissue paper then a card board disk inside fill with white glue and another disk on the end. should be sealed. I will reduce the amount of burst. give it another go in the morning. it is a dry pasted shell. a rin'd shell
