I have been helping a friend in making his own black powder.I just sent him some
of my black willow charcoal.I ask him to do a burn test after he ballmilled it & do
a video so I could see how fast the powder was.Check the cow in the back ground.

That was great! I nearly wet my pants.

Slow to decide, but once the decision was made, no time was wasted. :)

Smart cow! :)

I would suggest a tripod for the camera and some real shoes. +1 on the smart cow.

You better send him some fuse before he hurts himself too bad! Powder seems to work pretty well though.

Reminds me of the time I went camping and forgot matches. I thought BP burned slower when loose. I used the car cigarette lighter. I guess I learned something and the bad part was it burned so fast it didn't light the fire and I singed the hair off my hand.

Now that was funny. I wonder how far it hoofed thru the woods. lol.
Funny your friend didn't complain about the singe job his goatee took. {Gee's that powder was fast.}

That was an impressive burn. The escaping cow made it entertaining.

No safety glasses

Anyways, looks perfect to me! I noticed on my bench that loose BP burns much much faster than smokeless. Much. That burn there looked about right (and about 10 times bigger than me goofing around on my bench!)
