Swordchuck Update Oct 12

Hanuman · 10-12-2010, 08:38 AM

We have our new fuel mix, and it's tested.

It's a mix of biofuel and kerosene and burns cold enough that even the ridiculous amount of heat swordchucks throw off will be cold enough to hold them this time of year, and as it gets colder we will be able to brighten it up for you guys with progressively hotter mixes.

Camera and tripod is good to go, chucks primed and tuned, fuel ready, good to go!

Expect a video soon, but it might be in standard definition until I figure out how to work this blasted format my HDR-CX110 Sony Handycam spits out... seems like the programs it came with can't read it and neither can anything else on the market.

Swordchucks? Fuel? Whaaaaat?

He has sword chucks that are on fire.

Yeah it's taken quite a while to get both the funds for the camera and then get a good fuel mix with the fireban on.

Thanks for waiting =]

Try not to burn down Magic Faerieland, Lev. I'm sure a lot of people would be pissed at the loss of their climate and blame you for their exodus into the unforgiving cold of normal Canada.

In the years I've been doing fire performance I've never burned myself with fire. It's the metal near the fire you gotta watch out for-- instant burns up to second degree. Also, I've never seen anyone get a 3rd degree burn first hand-- but I've seen someone botch a breathe and get second degree all over his face.

Jokes aside, that sounds incredibly amazing and I'd love to see a video as soon as you can get one up.

Even after I learned, grew up, and came to be on the right side of a lot of important issues, I was still angry, abrasive, and generally increased the amount of hate in the world, in pretty unacceptable ways. On the off chance that someone is taking a trip down memory lane looking through those old threads, I wanted to devote my signature to say directly to you, I'm sorry. Thank you for letting me be better, NPF.
