The bottom plugs of those guns must be huge for you to be inserting the fuse that high.

Yes they are really thick clay plugs just some tubes I recycled from a Cake I shot and figured I’d make some mines out of the tubes for a video

@@northeastpyro2185 So you salvage stuff like me, huh? I wind up using only a little of what I save, but you never know. I think those commercial cakes are deliberately bottom-heavy for stability, plus a thick layer of clay makes them look like you're getting more. However, I notice that in a high proportion of those tubes, the clay is fragmented immediately by the shot and/or by disassembly. So I take it you ram them down again with additional clay as needed. Soon I hope to find out how much reuse I can get from 1" ID cases rolled by the method given in AFN for blender rockets: that is, from cereal or cracker box cardboard soaked in wheat paste. My attempts at blender rockets themselves flopped, but the tubes look sturdy enough to take the lift of a BP shot; they didn't always work against the sustained pressure of rocket engine. So far so good with one comet shot. My aspiration this year is to step up from the 5/8" ID (really 0.5" inserts) cakes I've been making for years from millenary rolls Kyle Kepley gifted me with. I want to make some racks with pallet wood and drilled holes, and try both bottom (side) fused with visco as in cakes and top chained with match as in racks.
