Ok, so here's how they work...
Simple 32 x 12mm TT mix go-getters made using my cardboard tube and knitting needle tooling, launched from 15mm ID rocket motor tubes in a little 4-shot cake. I really like the effect! :-)
So cheap, so effective. What's not to like about this?

I like it too!
Even when I'm wrong, I'm convincing.

Just as a side-note: shots 1, 3 and 4, I got the go-getter core aligned 'properly'. Shot 2, it was accidentally at a slight angle to the axis of the go-getter, hence the whirring effect. I think I actually prefer this, so I might do it this way deliberately in future! :-)
