Not so fun anymore.🤣🤣

200 saturn missles, 200g, 200g, 1 ginormous shells mortar and a 500g.

Everyone loved it. I feel pretty good about it. We are already discussing igniters next year.

During this year's show, I had 3 out of 17 MJG fuse tube initiators that didn't successfully light the fuses, even though the initiators went off. The pictures show the fuses the way I found them after the show. The initiators and the tape were physically separated from the fuses, and the fuses looked slightly burned, but hadn't fully ignited. The fuses were all newly purchased from Pyro Creations, and were definitely kept dry. I also included pictures of the way I connected the fuses to the initiators. I cut the fuses on a diagonal and used about 2" of 2" IPG paper tape wrapped around the fuse and initiator.

What am I doing wrong? Or what techniques do you guys use to connect MJGs to a fuse?

One thing I did notice was that the fuses fit a bit snuggly in the tubes - is there a chance they just blew out of the tube when the initiator fired before they could ignite? If so what should I do to stop that?

Thanks for any tips or advice!

So I had 4 1/1 and I’m hooked, they are insanely good and see why they more $$.

1. Masterpiece definitely will get again next year and honestly was very surprised how good it is.
2. Wilde E- was really good, great breaks. Would probably not get again only because similar to MP.
3. Medusa 256- the crowd loved the effects but I would want to get something different next year
4. Shot Caller- when I first bought it and watched videos of it on YouTube I want sure how I felt about it. BANGER, honestly seeing it in person compared to a YouTube video is wayyyy different. It was loud and great finale. I would get it again or go for a different one.

I’m in Colorado and went up to Wyoming for these, I think I got a good amount of stuff for under 400 but lmk and where to go for better deals😀

Neon 36 3” bore

I feel like this started an addiction. My friend had leftover cakes as he said? That no one wanted to buy for July 4th. Sold this to me for a good price. Already planning next year's festivities.

This Rollin 7 fountain was spectacular! Just amazing!

Simply Azure was really impressive.

And Salute to Summer was another stunner!

What item(s) impressed you guys the most?

Had a good haul this year, half went into storage for next year as rain ruined half the plans. But I’m completely sold on big bores, and am interested in where I can make a wholesale order for a good price. I pay 450-700 locally and that just isn’t gonna cut it for what I’m looking for. Any recommendations are appreciated. Hope yall had a great 4th

My local shoot site wouldn't let me use my home made racks with hdpe tubes saying if i did i would be cited and possibly taken to jail claiming they were illegal and ATF dosent allow them but i could shoot off anything else that was premade like cakes and rockets it was a massive bummer considering how much time i spent fusing and building them i guess they had issues with them blowing up in the past at the site still had a great 4th just sucks i couldn't use them anyone else have this issue before?
