I've spent so much time playing with experimental compositions that I've not actually made anything for a very long time. So, yesterday I spent a happy hour or so making half a dozen rockets, using Ken's excellent 10 mm tooling. The headings were concocted from assorted bits and pieces left over from recent experiments.
As expected, all the rockets worked perfectly, but the headings were rather boring - except for one, which contained a pinch (about 1 gram) of our no-lead, no-bismuth crackle. Here's the resulting video: https://youtu.be/z-An_JRnYjI (by the way, the closing comment was not from me!).
Happy New Year, everyone!

Happy New Year 2020
Even when I'm wrong, I'm convincing.

Hey! Happy New Year to you (all our Brit' friends). That WAS a nice rocket and header!

Happy new year.
Excellent little rocket just shows the crackle works!
In my opinion that was just as good as anything that came out of China.

Happy New Year all. Nice rocket!! Not jealous much because my plans to restart are on hold due to injury and pending knee repairs.
