Today I will be showing you a short little guide on RE about how to turn a jumpingjack firework into a cheap bottle rocket (No report). A jumpingjack is a firework that spins on the ground for a few seconds. It’s the same size and shape as a firecracker. It’s basically a mini groundbloom.
It’s VERY simple.
Sorry for the shitty pics. It’s from my camera phone
What you’ll need: - A Jumping jack
- A spaghetti noddle
- Tape (Any kind, but I think electric or duct works best)
Let’s Get Started:
first take a strip of tape, about 2 1/2 inches long.
Now rip it width wise, so it’s about one half an inch thick
Take that strip and wrap it around the two holes of the jumpingjack. I get about 2 layers of tape around it. It may depend how many layers depending on your tape
All that’s left is to tape it to the dry spaghetti noodle.
These actually fly pretty high in the air considering how cheap and easy they are too make.
I can get my hands on Groundblooms, would it work the same, just on a larger scale if I used one of those?
Pretty sure it wouldn’t, because notice it wouldn’t have a nozzle, because the ground blooms have the fuse coming out of the side.
I’m sure if you took a 1/8 drill bit and drilled it into the clay end plug you could remove the fuse and insert it through the nozzle you made. It may work.
Well how else would I have let you guys know about this?
I’m sure people who can’t get bottle rockets, but can get jumpingjacks are thanking me.
And JumpingJacks are those firecracker looking fireworks that spin on the ground for a a second.
I gave a three considering that your other stuff is quite good. Had I kept just THIS egg in mind, I would have given 1 *.
Thanks for telling me what jumping jacks are. A closer look at the pic shows 2 holes on its side. I might make some soon. 5* to your profile for telling me about JumpingJacks.
