^ Hawaii had big fireworks explosion with illegal aerials last New Years Eve fireworks, people got killed. State made new laws to try stop illegals.

 

I want to order a DJI drone. I think some or all are no longer for sale in the US?

 

Our local Rez only has fireworks on July 3rd, they shoot off way more and for much longer than the city does on July 4th. They support more activities and fundraisers in town than anyone else, but some people still complain about them being unpatriotic for doing it too early- Like they really have to be!

 

My understanding is the DOI was signed on the 2nd of July, a compromise?
Edit: Voted for on the 2nd of July.

 

Back in the day (60's) there was a company called Echo Products in NE Maryland. They sold, thru the mail, all the components for making every type of firework to anyone. Casings/tubes, end caps, fuse, the little balls for roman candles, stars etc, and several types of powder. The powder came in two bags that you mix together.
My favorite was the "large" firecracker, 6"x1.25", it took 13 grams of powder. Always a crowd pleaser.

Like ordering from a Sears catalog, lol. I could see that going bad with people making their own science experiments adding a little extra here and there and losing a finger or hand in the process.
