Just thought I'd share the wonder of Satan's Pants....a home-made wheel with 4x 1Kg cones that I made a few years ago.

This was the first test fire:


....enjoy:blink1:
 
Well Done. Not bad for an amateur.
How many time did it cost you to made this wheel?
Thanks for sharing
:idea:
 
Not quite an "amateur" 22 displays under my belt, winner of the first UKFR event (Newsbox Toy Boys), I also built all the set pecies there (St george & Dragon + Daleks & Tardis) also some FX work for TV (Ultimate Force & Casualty) :toung: :blink1:

The wheel takes about 1hr to make, and sits on a frame that's 6m high:smile:

Glad you enjoyed it....

I am so sorry Ambientskies. :embarrest: :embarrest:
I take my words back.
I did.nt know you before.
But now i know you. Such a great experience.
 
I can't really see it well, but did I see someone running to the allready burning wheel to push it a little? Seems pretty dangerous to me.

In the end it's a very nice piece of fireworks.
 
It was pretty scary....

I was filming and giggling? That was a test fire I will never forget.....

God knows what your neighbours thought?

But as a wheel has been used several times and worked well....will try and dig out some footage of it being fired in competition.
