Who was the one building 1/4 sticks last year?

3 50 grain triple7 pellets, 1/2 inch copper tubing w/caps and some wick,wax and your set, just be careful
 
Just go to Meijer and buy a can of Type P Pyrodex, go to a hobby store and buy wick. Put it in whatever you want and pack it down........light the wick and stand back.

I use a thick wall steel tube with an open top and a small hole drilled in the bottom for the wick. It has a stack on the bottom to stick in the gound. Completely reuseable :thumbsup:

i have found during my pipe sparkler experiments that when the gun powder is packed tightly there isnt as much of a boom... try it both ways though and see what works better

Put it in a co2 empty canister (like for air powered pellet guns (handgun)).
 
when you pack the tubes, loosely pack them you need some oxygen left in there to create detonation. PVC with glue on cap's works best. 3/4"X6" with about an 1/4 cup of gunpowder= about 1 stick. If you put the wick in the end and make sure it makes contact with the powder it works best, no miss fire's. So I've heard. :secret:
 
The Type P Pyrodex is muzzle propellant right?
I used to use that stuff with pvc long ago, it just makes a Smokey weak boom..
it burns waaaaay slower than reg gun powder, get the recipe for that stuff, then yer in business..
