dragon eggs!
Bismuth trioxide check, new copper oxide check, new Mag/al -80 thru
+250 errr check.
Screened the Mag/al and held -80 +100, went into the boonies of S.
Indiana and picked up a new can of NC, along with my star roller from
a buddy.
This was my 8th attempt at crackle, to offset the chance of failure I
stopped at a 1.4 shop and bought 2 types of "crackle balls".
Made the 37.5-37.5-25 that Lady Kate spoke of, poured the NC which is
a lot thinner than the double base I have and made a soup.
Stirred it down till thick and cut.
Unprimed,they smolder for awhile and throw an odd small spark.
Took the crackle balls apart and burned a core.
Very bright, and fast prime.
I'm going to redissolve with a little more NC, and make a hot prime
and see.
I have a silicon green prime that I'll finish with.
If anyone sees something amiss, please let me know.
Dan
