Where do you live?


Hello,

I'm from Belgium but he has shipped 11days a go, is it normal? My first parcel needed 5 days... I'm not from the United Kingdom.

About his potassium perchlorate and German Dark, I find it's on of the most powerfull flash compositions from his chemicals. I gonna do it with his magnesium powder and I hope it will be something very strong. Does anyone have some experience with his visco fuse? Is it good fuse or is it bad?

Like I said, many of us had to wait 2 months... so yeah pretty normal, you might have to wait much more than that.
His 3 mm visco fuse is excellent, but not very bendable. It burns very hot and leaves no unburned fuse... I wish I could buy his 2 mm fuse instead, 3 mm is a tad too big for my needs.

I understand it, I've called with him and he said it's in the container on a car. It will be on my adress 'on days'.

I also think it's better to buy 2mm fuse than 3mm fuse. It's cheaper and better, he has also 5mm but I think it's too powerfull. I will be good for the break of shells but not for other things like flashes or fountains. Does anyone here have some expirience with his cardboard tubes? He said he'll have some shell hemi's in the future, I think it will be very nice for the other European people who makes a lot of shells.

Does anyone here have some expirience with his bismuth trioxide, anthimony trioxide and rocket tools?

I've a question about his ammonium perchlorate. Is it good stuff or is it bad stuff? Because his potassium perchlorate is the best potassium perchlorate that I ever had...

Australia and Poland is a long, long way. Maybe it is illegal to ship too Australia but I think it's better to roder 50 meters, I believe the price for 20meters of 5mm visco is €45,20. I think it's better to take 3mm or 3,5mm visco fuse from him. What do you want to order from him? Because it's difficult to ship metalpowders too Australia. I know, he can ship too Canada but the rules in Canada are better than the rules from Australia about chemicals. If the customs find your chemicals you need to pay some taxes.

@Leosedf,

I see you're from Greece. You must know he ships with GLS, and I think GLS doesn't work in Greece. If I see on their website here in Belgium, I see that they doesn't ship too Greece. Maybe they can ship from Poland too Greece but I think it isn't possible.

Ive checked it out here and there are no import restrictions (there are for a few things, mostly drug related and ammonium nitrate) per say as long as your not importing huge amounts. There are no import charges as long as its under $1000 value. Metal powders are fine as ive has stuff like that sent to me before. I'm 100% certain visco is restricted unless i have a license but i have plenty laying around anyway, just never seen 5mm visco before.

He quoted me $40 for a 5kg package
