Hey

Im totally new here and actually I just wanted to show you some of my creations, so that you can give me some improvement suggestions :)

If my english has some errors, please excuse ;)

 

My cake looked like this:

It was a present for my dad, and I had only some tigertailstars. I had to use them up :P They were 6mm, 8mm and 1cm, pumped. Nothing special, but my parents liked it. I hope you can give me some review!

 

The video finally:

Here I have also the video of a 60mm Starmine, also Tigertail. My new chemicals arrived just yesterday =)

Unfortunatly i don't have any prefire pics, but it was a simple bagmine construction.

Nice work dude!! I am a huge fan of Carbon tail stars, C6 especially. But TT isn't bad.

 

Really nice Job. Only I would try to slow down the burning rate of your stars, then it would be even more beautifull.

Nice work. What type of charcoal are you using for your TT stars? Do you make your own BP for lift?

Hey

Some stars were just about 6mm, so they burned very quickly.

I used charcoal from a beech. I really like the color this charcoal gives.

For sure I make the BP by myself, what a question:P

Nope, no PVC, PVC suxx as mortar*g* 0.5cm strong HDPE pipes. For this calibre they are good enough.

Oh sorry, I think I missunderstood you. The black ones are HDPE, the brown is a 3mm strong PApertube and the white one is also a papertube, but about 8mm strong.

Dude, the front and the back are cardboard, even my blind dead grandmother can see that.

 

The middle ones are hdpe, I though you ment those..

 

0,5 cm is for HDPE 2" very think, My 4" are 8 mm and they are indestructable.
