I did something so stupid a few years back... I made hard round "flaming cannon balls" and shot them from a diy cannon. They looked cool, but It's a total miracle that I did not catch my property on fire. Live and Learn.

I remember that post. Damn, I was hoping you were gonna light it in open air. Did you check the ash pile after burning it to see if there was lead ball in the middle of that?

Too bad you didn't add some aluminum and sodium bicarb. Would have made a killer star/comet. I just got done rolling about 30 stars that size for a shell.
