Hi all,
I'm trying to set up some pyrodex ejection charges in 2ml centrifuge vials and want to know how well I should try to contain the powder. With the vial completely full (~1.8g), and sealed with quite a bit of masking tape it went off with a sound a lot like a gunshot in a preliminary test outside of the rocket. Is that ideal or does that risk blowing holes in things?
Thanks!
