is that primer cord your talking about? i use that stuff to light my grand finale on the forth, 670 bottle rockets 24 roman candles, 64 sparklers, 75 screamin tigers, 14 buzz bombs, and 48 cannon flares. always gets the neighbors outside when we start shooting off fireworks. takes me 4 days just to wire up the grand finale.

A frined buys the fireworks, he spent 170 today, plan on spending about, 3-500 on the 4th, our fun got interupted tonight by the cops though. Lousy people, cant they let some young guys have their fun and shoot roman candles at eachotehr and see how many bottle rockets can be set off at once.

What you got to do to set up a grand finale?

as far as getting things to go off at the same time and how to get say 100 bottle rockets to go off of the same light?

I spend nothing, fireworks are not legal in MN. The small ones that dont explode such as sparklers are, but not the cool stuff, and it is too much work to drive over to wisconsin.
