fireworkshell,

I have an Indian friend who from time to time travels in the area around Sivakasi. Once, he brang me back some of those wonderful Indian crackers that are wound entirely in bright green string. I'd love it if you can find give us a closer look at a few of these since I haven't seen them for years. They made a very unique, deep kind of sound, not like anything else I've heard!

Thank you! (If you can)

I belive these are called 'sutli b0mbs':



Essentially a string-bound maroon or flash cracker. The europeans have a few versions too, with Al-glazed BP or flash. They make a most satisfying report, particularly the ones that use BP. There's a tutorial PDF up on Pyrobin IIRC.
