Well, Another question What are those "Stars" and how do I start making tye balls it self? Cuz I need the balls but idk how to start making a begin of a round formed thingy 😅
FYI: when your stars are looking like raspberries that means 2 things. 1. You aren't allowing enough time for the stars to fully damp before the next coating. Only parts of the sphere get wet so only parts of the sphere grow as powder sticks. 2. You aren't adding enough powder before you add more liquid. (You can also fix your raspberry looking stars by adding excess powder and let them roll for a good while after wetting them). Sometimes it seems like the stars won't take any more pwder but if you let them roll for a good 5min, they will take up the powder and grow in those uneven spots. Also: dry your stars for at least 2 weeks. The longer you let them sit, the more profound they get. I know it sucks, the itch to test them in a shell gets me anxious😂
This may seem insignificant but I really appreciate your choice of music in your videos. I'm by no means into classical music but it's just undivisive, unlike all modern music which you either like it or you don't. I hate it went I'm watching a video with music that's really obnoxious and I have to mute it.
I have a question about something unrelated to this video... I have trouble timing my 3" shells (gets super scary real quick!) And question my homemade gunpowder as well. I used the recommended length of time fuse but it's still bursting close to the time it hits the ground!!!! The mortar shoots the shell probably only 12 to 150 feet high and I think my shells probably should be going higher. I'm using like at least 30g black powder and i know it is fast because 10g in a muzzleloader about blew the gun out of my brother's hands!
Start improvinh your BP. Different wood charcoal work differently. Pine works very nice for BP. Use lift 10% of your shell weight. Then Time fuse. Around 2cm piece and 5mm inside diameter burns in 2.3 seconds so make about 3cm Time fuse. Then make your shells just perfect for your mortar that it sildes smoothly Inside. Thats my tip.
besides crackling cores what do you recommended using I was thinking of trying 1 mm rubber balls for some reason I have a bag full of thousands of them lol would u try small 1-2mm chunks of coal for the core? just looking for ideas on different cores for the stars
I like to use millet grains, but small rubber balls could be good too because i think then the stars would turn out more round. Charcoal bits im not so sure about
Can you make the star explode at the end like commercial fireworks? Like canlde firework there is a small star particle but it explodes with a very beautiful effect
its not a star that gets shot up, its called a bombette that is filled with flashpowder and small stars and the reason it sometimes look like a star is cause the bombette has a colored preburner
@@pyro_chimera I don't think it's good for long time storage, but yes, it reacts very slowly with nitrates compared to chlorates and perchlorates. With ammonium perchlorate you can feel a strong ammonia smell even when you treat the surface of the magnesium with potassium dichromate.
To avoid the raspberry shape, you have to use a star roller like the ones in factories that don't have a flat side. Maybe I have read it in a book by Takeo Shimizu or Hardt, btw. good video.
Not all stars are ignite, take atention on priming. Stars looks glosy after priming. Before pourout stars from roler spray stars wit mixture then pour into the bucket wit PB powder for few minutes then saparate bp from stars. star will seems poudered wit bp like donuts with powdered sugar .Then they should all light up.
@@pyro_chimera I have one last question 😅, it's unrelated, do you think sodium nitrate can replace potassium nitrate for black powder? I've wondered for so long
Hey I have seen your video to how make stars but I think the method takes a lot of time, instead of doing the stars with the turning machine you can put some alcohol on the gun powder and make a balls with it and let dry with using low heat or just using the ssun
@@Ohio_Hobbies_Guy If your black powder is of excellent quality 7% might suffice. Paradoxically this is even more true for larger (>6") shells in accordance with Newton's 1st Law.
nice work man!! that was a really nice shell your hard work payed off!! love the effect on the stars too
I love pyro and classical music so your videos are perfect for me😊
Me too!!!
the raspberrying occurs when too much water is added. Try to stay as dry as possible to avoid the lumpyness!
Well, Another question
What are those "Stars" and how do I start making tye balls it self?

Great details. I enjoy the step-by-step sub-titles.
Thank you Sir!
loved the crackling sound at the end, amazing work
Keep it up bro, you are making great content ❤
Awsome Stars you've made there 😮👍🏻
I really enjoy your content and your choice of music

Pls give me the composition of the last coating of stars friend! Thanks for your sharing!
Hello bro, what micrometer (μm) does magnesium have? Thanks
hello sir, you. could you tell me how to make the kamuro effect last for a long time. THANKS
besides crackling cores what do you recommended using I was thinking of trying 1 mm rubber balls for some reason I have a bag full of thousands of them lol

Can you show me the heat stimulation layer in star beads
What is the composition you put at the very end before closing the balls? Im guessing BP and the greyish powder is a mixture of nitrate and aluminium?
Potassium nitrate and magnesium flashpowder
How do you know how long the time fuse needs to be? Dose it have to do with the amount of powder used to launch it?
Around 2-3seconda should be good enough
Could you please share the formula for colored heat wrap? I'm Vietnamese
How to make black powder coating please 🥺
Kno3-?
Sulphur -?
Charcoal - ?
75% of kno3
15% of charcoal
10% of sulfur
how do you use magnesium in water bound stars, with hygroscopic sodium nitrate on top of that, without it starting to oxidize and get smelly?
I have passivated magnesium i guess thats why they didn’t smell and i dont think magnesium reacts the way aluminium or zinc does with nitrates
@@pyro_chimera I don't think it's good for long time storage, but yes, it reacts very slowly with nitrates compared to chlorates and perchlorates. With ammonium perchlorate you can feel a strong ammonia smell even when you treat the surface of the magnesium with potassium dichromate.
Why you put like almost 100 balls and only see less than half, like 30 lit up?
Nice work look soo good💥💥💪
Xin chào. Tôi là người Việt Nam, tôi có thể xin thành phần màu xám mà bạn sử dụng để rắc đều lên phần nhân quả pháo. Xin cảm ơn
Flashpowder
@@pyro_chimera cho tôi xin thành phần và tỉ lệ để tạo ra nó. Có vẻ nó rất tốt để bắt lửa. Cảm ơn
Great firework

Hmm ok i will try and find a bucket with a rounded edge thank you
The Point ist that u dont use enoug amount of Substrate. More Stars...no Raspberry
The raspberry is rather caused in high charcoal stars by too low alcohol concetration in the water and too fine milled composition
Is possible to extract stars from a roman candle?
Yes
Nice song ;)
Bạn có thể cho tôi xin công thức bắt lửa hạt star không??thank you
how much money would it take to get all the of materials, let alone gear for this type of thing
50-70$ i dont know
what liquid did you use to spray them? Also great video
Isopropyl alcohol and water mix
Do a video on delay of stars like how to make them delay and change colors
I have made a video like that, it was the first star making video
You Roll it with Alcohol and water?
Yes
First, let's cover those stars with high-speed gunpowder, then with normal gunpowder, right?
0:40 is that a begbug?😮
Nice bro ❤️
Sir give star composition please
Where did you get the drying chamber?
Hardware store its a food dehydrator

Alright
Make glitter n1 star and test it in shell pleaseee
Ok maybe
请问使用的什么粘合剂
Wheat paste
Can we replace alcohol with hand sanitizer ?
i dont know, if it has like 70-90% isopropyl alcohol and isn't a gel then it should work
@@pyro_chimera ok thanks 🙏 !
@@pyro_chimera I have one last question 😅, it's unrelated, do you think sodium nitrate can replace potassium nitrate for black powder? I've wondered for so long
@@damien_zsn6252 probably not im not too sure myself but most likely no plus i dont see a reason to do that
@@pyro_chimera because I don’t have a lot of kno3 so I test different alternative

Good i will try
Stars is not making ball alone, its about layering idiot
*sun*
@@Ratahelclips bro 😆
Sweet video bro 👍 new sub from me here in the UK 🇬🇧🔥💣💥💪🤘
How much lift do you use?
10% of finished shells weight plus a gram or two
@pyro_chimera ok good. So I did mine right then lol.
