if i did anything that dangerous id use brown parcel string soaked in petrol to light the fuse, so that i could be meters away before touching matches.
My backlog of PM is just too long. I can't bealived I missed this. Robfir gets a warning for his troubles. For all of those who do not understand why, please go and read some basic pyrotechnic books before making unacceptable posts. YOU DO NOT USE PETROL SOAKED STRING in this forums. NEVER! The next one to contribute such information will be banned.
