Yes, I was bored.

An order from Rich Wolter arrived today too, so I wasn't really *that* bored:

Sorry it is a poor photo. Lovely tooling set though, I really like the funnel. I asked him make it up to match the pyrotube.com tubes. Makes loading the bottle rockets a < 2 minute affair, very expedient. Can't wait to try it out on lances and pin wheels.

Yep. He has 7/8" shell bottom feet, each has a copper wire ankle joint that can be adjusted for balance. All the joints are posable to some degree. The hat is a 2" mine disk with double fuse holes, the chinstrap is a rubber hand tied through the holes. The only glue joint is holding the hat tube to the disk, everything else is a friction fit.

Well done, never thought of using my tubes in such a way.

Why don't you send that picture to PyroTube itself? Maybe they will be very pleased with your creation and will they offer a lifetime supply of tubes and hemi's.

Nice work alany. Just put an order in with pyrotube. I wish skylighter shipping for tubes was as good as this.
