Product Information

Dave Stoddard demonstrates how round plastic shells are made, from selection of materials, right through to attaching the quickmatch leader. Dave begins with stars, discussing differences and decisions. He shows some tricks for making cut stars, for using willow stars in shells, and how to grind chemicals with a cheap device. Learn how to keep stars from detonating. Primes? He covers differences among H3, whistle mix and their problems. He discusses time fuse, cross match, determining fuse burn time, and making a flameproof seal around the fuse. He shows how to load stars, various effects, layering, making a jig to clamp shells together, and how to snap halves together without spilling the contents. He covers lift cup and finishing, making lift cups, preparing and affixing the leader, finishing, stress relief, and protecting the tip from sparks in the mortar. This video is a perfect companion to Dave Bleser’s Round Stars & Shells book (#BK0135). He even tells how to make coated rice hulls, describing both whistle mix hulls and black powder hulls. This step-by-step method shows you the proper way to successfully make plastic ball shells. 81 minutes.
