Hi.I first searched the forum for a while but it was difficult for me to find what i wanted.So i make a new topic.

I want to buy some paper shells not many,but wherever i find some they need more than what i buy in shipping.So i want a someone to send cheap shells in Europe as i live in Greece.
Do you have anyone in mind?Thanks a lot.

hello!, the cheapest and easiest option would be to make them yourself!, there's lots of info here on the forum type "hemis" into the search function and you'll find a wealth of know-how.

A few (10 or so) plastic hemis -regardless of price! Would make a small batch of moulds for you to make your own paper hemis very cheaply! As the hemi is only to hold the contents til the pasting in is complete and hard the actual hemi needn't be too strong. In a fully pasted shell the pasting layers and string spiking are much more significant than the structure of the hemi!

After you have a row of moulds a hemi is little more than some effort with some paper and paste. Then let them dry naturally til they harden enough to handle.

If you really do want to order them I can definetly recommend w.pyro-stuff.com I'm not one of the owners of the shop, just a dutch pyro that has had DAMN good experiences with this shop! Owners are really nice and all products are top quality.
