Having done this with three dozen, I knew where that was going. If they had not channeled the flame upwards it would have been quite the fireball.

I was kind of hoping to see a 1000-sparkler bomb

(I'm sure no one on here's EVER made a sparkler bomb, right?)

Ok, one of us is going to have to move further away from the other. First the dunebuggy on CL and now the sparkler thread?

I once ATTEMPTED to make a rocket out of an aluminum solder dispenser pen and a few hundred match heads.

I ATTEMPTED to fire it out of the garage but it immediately spun back on itself (cursed asymmetric thrust) and wound up spinning like crazy underneath my dad’s ’76 Camaro ejecting molten material everywhere - don’t worry, it had straight six 250 mated to an automatic so...

Good times
