3 weekends of fire shows with a 216 commute each Friday and Saturday. I'm glad it is over as these shows really take it out of me. But, they went over well. The crowds seemed nicer and really into it this year. And, the paycheck doesn't hurt. ;)
We have 2 six foot ones that we do sometimes use for back ground, but need refueling often. Since we spin them around from time to time, they don't have any reserve as it would spill.
Possibly interested. I like the not killing people ideas.
Our fire swords used to be more ornate, but we found the points caught on things, including the wick in the sword, and did a lot of damage. That's why we switched to the simpler design. 75% of our fire shows are at night, and folks can't really see the sword anyhow.
But, it does look like a cool sword. I'l like to know more about the tank and wick system...
