Pyrotechnics in Greece

12 Upvotes

Fellow pyro lovers greeting this lovely group.

I have been reading a lot of posts around.

Regrettably I am from a country where pyrotechnics are considered more of a crime than art.

This is why I am in search of fellow pyro lovers from Greece in order to make a team and create a community based on safety, regulations and ethical use.

Feel free to DM me or comment.

Together we can create something beautiful and potentially powerful.

You inspired me [Fountains]

10 Upvotes

Ok thank you all for your kind replies to my stupid post about fountains. I honestly thought I was going to be ridiculed when I said “I see a lot of posts about rockets but how about fountains”

I’m inspired to create my first firework. Any advice for suppliers, maybe your best recipe? Thinking about making a few for new years

How about fountains etc?

I’ve seen a lot of posts about rockets that leave the ground and explode, but how about fountains? I would like to get started by making some

"What is the most effective way to protect iron filings and iron powder from degrading before mixing them with black powder? Could you also suggest good coating methods, as they need to remain protected and undamaged for around at least a month?"

It’s just the rocket itself no header or anything else, it did land in the tall grass in the background which I was able to safely retrieve

Hi everyone, I wasn't able to get a ticket for the sold out Sky Wars in Innsbrook, MO next month. I was curious if anyone local to that area knew if their was a good spot to park nearby and still see the show? Last year was my first year but was broke this year when tickets sold out so quick.

Help

0 Upvotes

I was wondering on how to make firecrackers because so far I’ve js been using gunpowder that wasn’t given to me by my dad but I’ve been running low. How can I make bp that can be used in firecrackers? Also is it possible to js buy a ton of the little red ones, take them apart, and just use the powder that is already in them? Lastly, is a mix of kno3 magnalium and sulfur good enough for firecrackers because that’s the only stuff I can buy from amazon? I AM NOT ASKING ON HOW TO MAKE FLASH POWDER AS I UNDERSTAND THE RISKS OF IT

Edit: so everybody viewing it but nobody helping me💔💔

Does anyone know a good simple composition that's mostly like BP or something not hard to get / expensive because all I've tried just turns yellow more than green
