Hi guys, my nichrome arrived today, so hopefully i can knock up a firing panel before November the 5th, but what is the easiest way to make a homemade e-match, or more to the point is there a specific way to wrap it?
this is my first test, but i think im using too much nichrome, as it uses a continental style car fuse as a former (has nice little bumps that keep the wire seperate, but take about 5 seconds to ignite so i need a bit less, any ideas on household stuff i can use as a former?
