Been playing around with how I want to use my racks this year.
Wanted to see if anyone had any input on fuse speed and layout or any advice you might have.


Currently have 2 racks (30 shot, 50 shot) with an additional one (24 shot) in shipping from Great Lakes Mortar Racks.
50 shot is part of the finale. It's skypuke so that is pretty simple.
All canisters are 76 pro line. I just talked with one of the sales reps and got them to update their video to show all the new effects.

Fusing is "U" Shaped for this one right now, Thinking of going with 15 sec/ft fuse on it till the quick fuse at the end
6996

For finale racks I use 25 tube setups (square, milk crate sized for ease of storage and transport). I gang fuse the whole rack of 25 with two pink visco wyed off at the ingoing end of the master fuse (use pink on a couple of racks for slightly slower launch rate, and light grey ultra fast fuse for the last two, to give one final big burst) with each visco tied to an MJG wired to the same cue. This way, I have redundancy to ensure the rack lights up without fusing it from both ends, which causes the whole rack to burn off even faster, assuming both fuses light. Last year I did 2x25 with pink fuse, and 2x25 with pale grey, for a total of a 100 shell finale. I plan to up it to 125 this year (5 racks of 25).

I have a few inline racks I have setup with wiring hooks so that each shell can be individually triggered by a Cobra cue via an MJG, and have L hooks for the slat to hang on the side of the rack. This makes it about as tidy and secure as is possible.
