Also, would I be correct to assume that the brown things there are bits of paper to stop the stars wriggling out?

I have now made and added the break charges and the rough powder is drying, the 4hour milled rough powder is also used as lift in these shells.

Your work looks amazing Karlfoxman! Are you making these for a living? or hobby? Do you shoot on a regular basis like every day? You seem to put a great deal of effort into making some fantastic shells.
I really enjoy reading your posts.
Second that! Haven´t been here for a long time. Your projects get bigger and more exciting with every page of this thread.
These pics encouraged me to build a few thing myself again hehe. One question: Why did you put large-grained blackpowder in a spiked shell for lifting purpose?! Doesn´t grained blackpowder - not that confined -work here?

I can use powder that is milled for 4 hours to lift and break this shell, I use no booster like whistle or flash to aid break. Next time i'm in Malta I will ask sam to fire a 6" 3 break with bottom shot in daylight and I will video the lift. When you see the tiny lift shells its amazing to see how little they use to launch these massive shells.
