    I do my boards similar, but I use quick fuse for everything and find the last tube in the cake and cut a small hole in the cake right by that tube and tie off the fuse for the next cake from that one. That way the last tube in each cake lights the next one. More work but Perfect timing every time.

    I have used your videos a great deal in the short time I have become engrossed in the world of fireworks. You may have a video that covers this already, but my inner math nerd has to ask just in case you don't. Have you ever created your boards using radial alignment instead of linear? It would require a great deal of fuse covering, but even with the burn variance of the added fuses, you would still have the potential for greater control in effects pairing with quick fuse extensions off of a main fuse that evenly splices the board. For the record, you obviously are a great teacher because I have learned this all from your videos in a matter of days. Keep up the great work!

    Cake boards are great. I cut mine down to 12x24 inches which holds 2 500 gram cakes perfect. It also allows a "one-man show" ease in humping the boards to shoot site plus prior storage. Number one rule, remove the paper on the bottom of your cakes to prevent the saturation of paper making it more likely to fall off or tear after setup.. Glue the bottom of the tubes and plugs to board.

If I wanted to fuse about 20/200g cakes together, have the cakes fused up and press together... would the fuse still burn if the cakes was pressed together? Like the fuse running in between the pressed cakes still burn? Hopefully you understand what I’m asking since I can’t show u.

    I always lay out the cakes on plywood & then get a sharpie and hold the cake down. I then trace the perimeter of the cake so when I go to glue I know what exact are to glue in. I don’t waste any glue and it always sticks. Normally, I get a foot of fuse & time then I can plan from there. I normally try and find videos of the cake and time the cake, then figure out the spacing between then & I have a show. Just zip tie the fuses together ( I lie, to cut the access zip tie off to make it look nice) & you have a board. Similar to what you do but just a bit different. I’m planning on making a few boards then putting a module for them all. I can size back and fire my show!

      If you're gluing them down you have to remove the plastic and paper wrap from the bottom, otherwise it's not really glued down, it's just a thin piece of paper or plastic wrap holding it.

    Instead of using silicone (which is not actually glue) use construction adhesive.
    Also, if using boards with a glossy finish like that, scratch the surface with some sandpaper and clean before gluing .

  • @JdubbJdubb
    @JdubbJdubb Год назад

    I’m guessing you could use that same fusing technique. And then use an ignite system to ignite rather than hand light. Personally I’ve always hand lit my fireworks but i really like the idea of being able to sit back, push a button and each the show.
    I’m guessing i might try that sometime. I’ll fuse together a bunch of different racks, and cake boards and then just plug them into an ignite system and then many fire off my channels with phone.
