Beach Shoot #8 - RP Hummer

Date: 2003-11-03

Description

Simple 8mm ID hummer device, 40 mm long. Chiefly to test the new kind of tube, fire resistant, rolled using waterglass (sodium silicate solution) as the glue.

Rammed with rocket propellant, wax treated clay end plugs. Fused with blackmatch and meal-NC paste.

Comments

Didn't spin.

I buggered up when drilling the hole, it wasn't off-centre enough to start the case spinning.

The resistant tube worked well though.
