Here I’m testing an idea for a helical igniter to ignite the core of a yellow smoke test device. I thought it would cause a flare up, but it worked beautifully.
Yellow Smoke Formula:
Solvent Dye Yellow 33 42%
Potassium Chlorate 24.1%
Magnesium Carbonate 17.5%
Sucrose 16.4%
Dry powder pressed to 1000lbs
[no binder]

Had to skip to the end for results, WOW, that would be insane ground cover smoke. Your videos and formulas never disappoint!
Bro are you really calling them colored smoke devices in the year 2024? They're called smoke devices of color! Get with the times!
@@despraterado588 🤣
Smoke device lives matter!
Dude, that thing puts out more smoke than the military units.
It'd be amazing to see you do a video on plasticising thermite/making thermite bricks or igniters!
That was really awesome, I am trying to save up some supplies and make quite a few of these in the winter months and I will continue watching to see your best results and your favorite designs so I know what to go with when I go making mine.
You are truly an expert in this field, you find new methods and better efficiencies every time.🎉👍
Love the idea of a chimney device in the previous build! Perfect way to control the ash matrix. What would happen if you fed fuze down through center, and wrapped it on the outside of the mesh back towards the top? Thus starting the bottom of the composition first. Would that help with the ash matrix?
@@ChrisSutton-l8i that is genius, damn you’ve been paying close attention for a while. I wish I thought of that.
Sweet! You're approaching the cutting edge of smoke design, how does it feel to be able to be legitimately called an expert now?
Any interest in making a 37mm signaling smoke design?
Yes!!
Airburst smoke next yo
Airburst smoke + oc /cs!
bruh, that is amazing
MgCO3 is as substrate to give more smoke particles and something for the dye to latch onto, or to slow down mix?
Hello I was wondering if you could make a working smoke granade out of a three d printed one thank you
CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN.😊. YOU DID GREAT... VERY COOL AND EFFECTIVE.... TIME TO SCALE UP SOME.... WE LOVE THE YELLOW.. MIGHT BE THE BEST CHOICE OF ALL.... NO MORE WHITE....YOUR THOUGHTS????. THANK YOU AGAIN...SEE YA SOON.... HOPE SO...😊😊😊😊😊...
That is great.
Amazing
ANDDDD THIS IS HOW WE START GIANT FOREST FIRES LMAO HA Just kidding that shits not funny. But yeah I’m just messing with you brotha, I know you know what your doing and I’m sure you take some sort of extra precautions and what not..LIKE EVERY RESPONSIBLE PYRO SHOULD! Anyways ha I really dig your content bro you definitely have a lot of dope videos.. With the world heading in a very dark direction as we speak we might have to start utilizing these techniques at a time in the not so far off future unfortunately. (Hopefully Not) But it’s definitely better to have certain things and not need them than to need them and not have them right? STAY READY SO YOU DON’T HAVE TO GET READY PEOPLE.. GOOD PEOPLE NEED TO STICK TOGETHER/ HAVE ONE ANOTHER’S BACKS NO DOUBT. 💯 Awesome work you’re doing here bro!
Innovative.
Massive smoke!
wow
Why does it pulse like that?
It’s building and releasing pressure through an ash matrix. That’s why it changes in frequency and amplitude as the composition burns. Here’s a perfect example of the process: ua-cam.com/video/80cKOHF5PtU/v-deo.html&si=G84iT6jPqtmSx-_u

*Don't overcomplicate things.....just drill out a smaller core, and then use NC laquer to stick coarse BP granules to the smoke comp....and then use a fast burning fuze loose within the core to ignite the entire length of the core smoke comp.* Drilling out such a large hole just to fit a wire mesh cage is not necessary, and the problem can be more simply solved by allowing the base of the grenade to burn out..releasing twice the smoke in two directions. #KISS
@@thomasg4324 this comp is too soft for that. It would fall apart if dropped or jostled around in an airsoft pouch. I’d need a binder and more compression. Just because I’m using a cardboard body for testing doesn’t mean I’m replicating all aspects of cheap Chinese firework making (said respectfully). Also, this is intended for signaling over screening, duration over fast volume deployment. Safety for in hand ignition, and fire risk mitigation.
But yes, I’ve spent my whole “adult” life fighting my natural tendency to overcomplicate things
@@InventionIncarnate
*A piece of flashpaper, held in with masking tape and lightly NC laquered over, has served us well with regard to two sided smoke grenades.* The flash of the ignition ruptures the end, and it's waterproof. Not a problem at all for soft/loose compositions. I would say the volume of smoke, and speed of putting out that volume is far more important than duration...but to each his own. I just think losing comp to a cage with fuze is unnecessary when a smaller core all the way through can be quite easily ignited with coarse BP granules and fast fuze.......more smoke, easier to construct, cheaper, and gets the signal smoke volume high much faster. *The second vent isn't necessary, but even placing the spiral fuze INSIDE the cage would allow for a smaller core...thus more comp. It would still ignite it.*
I enjoy the videos very much.
over thinking it
go get electrical tape - pull off much as u need to cover birthday sparkler long ways 1 strip- place b day sparkler on it long ways - roll it up like a cigarette
now you can pre bend it and it will stay lit. and drip fire if needed at well for fire starter. type -2. 2 layers cooking foil 3/4 length from tip to bass makes it burn hotter and quicker
Respectfully, Imma say that’s under-thinking it. Slow burning, hotter than necessary, difficult to ignite, nasty black smoke contaminating brightly colored dye.
This is not thermite, it’s a potassium chlorate-based smoke mix. It will ignite if you speak to it harshly
@@InventionIncarnate not everyone lives in the land of the free making niche vides oh yar you need visco fuse. nice you can achieve clean burns .
Oh my god bro I’m sorry. I completely spaced emailing you. It’s been a very stressful week. One thing after another.
Your venmo doesn't work
