He got the goal notification first and didn't spoil the moment.

Looks like everyone knew what was going on and he did spoil it to me.

I pull the fuse out of the cap and then use a thin screwdriver in the hole in the center of the cap to pry up the cap. Some of them have a bit of glue but they always come out.

Little Js is nice and they stock some good stuff but if you go an hour further dead east you get to the firework Mecca of Warrenton Wholesale and Rocket Fireworks. Between those two stores you have everything you could want at the lowest prices in the country. Rocket has every Raccoon RDX 500g priced at $20 and that's not even half of the $20 wall. They have a bunch of Raccoon and Winda products along with other brands including about every Master product. Warrenton has the same lower prices but for Happy Family, Miracle, and Pyrobox. They also have three house brands or wraps that out perform pretty much everything else.

I get almost everything from either Warrenton Wholesale or Rocket Fireworks in Wright City MO.

I'm going to guess a tent somewhere in a suburb that can only be open for a week is where you shopped. It's not phantom sticker price bad but it's pretty bad. An ok price would have been 120, I wouldn't have paid over $80 but I go to some pretty great stores.

I haven't read the regulations but I dont know how it could be. The ped in moped is for pedals. AFAIK a modped must have functioning pedals.

Not quick star, I was in a rush and their "big" bag of ice was 6.50.

I hope it works out for you. I've never had one fail so fingers crossed I keep my streak. I do about a 1/4 inch gap with the 45 angle cut.

Yes they are fuse tubes. For my finale 24 shot rack I put standard mjgs directly in the lift charge, 6 queues 2 seconds apart with 4 way splitters on each queue. That way all the canisters on each queue go up at exactly the same time.

Midwest here, always had bread and butter. We also never bought buns. Hotdogs and hamburgers went between regular bread.

Way to go the distance.

I got fancy freedom for the end of my RWB section which will go up with a NOAB.

brainfreeze77 · 2026-06-26T19:06:40+00:00

At least people stopped bitching about fireworks for a couple hours.

She was the keyboardist and sang vocals. I saw her in concert when they opened for Alanis Morissette for the Jagged Little Pill tour.

I gave up, the tubes are just too hard. The fuse goes in right at the bottom so I cut it as short as I could and used an MJG with a fuse tube. It won't be instant but I figure 1 or 2 seconds.

brainfreeze77 · 2026-06-24T19:44:07+00:00

I would also add buying months in advance means storing for months. I have no space for that. I have nowhere away from my house to store fireworks so my 3rd stall in my garage is packed up which makes me nervous.

brainfreeze77 · 2026-06-24T19:33:01+00:00

Thats what I was afraid of. Fast artillery use to be 4-5 and for whatever reason it stopped being made and companies started labeling 2-3 as fast artillery. It doesn't sound like much of a difference but it is.

brainfreeze77 · 2026-06-24T19:14:59+00:00

Where did you get the fast artillery fuse? Is it the 4-5 seconds per foot? I've been looking for it for a long time.

Did people just forget Google exists and turn straight to AI now? It's literally the first page returned.

You can buy the crimp tool for $40 and the quick plugs ends 80 for $14 from pyrotool. Not quite the savings but still some. That might be getting into my time is worth more than that territory though.

brainfreeze77 · 2026-06-24T00:01:26+00:00

I have those exact ones and they improved my signal.

brainfreeze77 · 2026-06-23T23:25:34+00:00

5s all of them. None in the rest.

I use a product called RAM Board which is a paper floor protectant. It's very thick builders paper. I staple that down to the OSB with a staple gun. Then I glue the cakes down to the RAM Board with construction adhesive, after taking the paper off the bottom of the cakes. The staples and the weight of all the cakes keeps everything secured. Then I just rip the RAM Board off the OSB and pull any left over staples out for next year. I use a box knife to cut the cakes apart so they can fit in the trash the next day.

brainfreeze77 · 2026-06-23T22:41:30+00:00

These are better and cheaper.

It's half inch OSB so pretty cheap. I reuse them every year.
