Do you mean rockets? :)




If you will, a rocket with 2 end plugs.......

to be fair, some of the cato's ive had have been fairly loud - its a very different noise to a flash salute though.

I've made a really deep boom that made the ground shake with 3FA and granulated whistle rocket mix 50/50, It blew breeze blocks over and abliterated a bag of sand placed on top, fired with an e-match and a dewalt 18 volt battery about 40 yards away. It had 20 grams in total in a card tube taped and glued to hell.

hmm i had a similar thought of using a dewalt 18v battery myself, chiefly because i have used other rechargeable batteries before, but may only use them once,twice a year so they degrade, where i use the dewalt pretty much everyday

does the cabosil/grapite have the same effect, and indeed no nasty effects when using pot.Nitrate/Mg(or MgAl for that matter)

Cabosil/graphite should give you the same effect,and i do not see why it should give you any nasty surprises.
