--Hey gang this tribe has gone from a crazy dream to well over 40 members. Soo howzabout sounding off with what you're about, etc, to stir the pot a bit?
--Example: I was working on flame effects for a small art car, but have decided that "licensing" for Playa driving is a pain and will just use 'em around our campsite instead. And adding a whistle makes for a *really* loud flame! Hope to move on to a computer programmable flame calliope when I get the time.

    I am Karl, I am a water/fire artist and engineer. I have a created a series of water fountains that are on fire that will be showing at the Crucbile's FIre Arts Festival.
    You can view a video of them at www.waterfirelight.com.

    I am looking for fellow fire weirdos who also have very little arm hair from it being burnt off on a regular basis.

    hey,
    bob aka bellboy here. i'm redoing the FE on my flying pig from last year. if you missed it the pig is built on an electric wheelchair; there're build pics in my tribe photos. improvments I'm making ~ i've gone to two separate accumulators and solenoid effect valves instead of a single manual one. I've put check valves in the supply lines so that i can fire each one seperately without drawing down the other tank. Also running the pilots from a seperate 20 pounder so i can just crank them up and not worry as much about freezing up my tank. now i just have to wait for DMV sent the ok.
    ~bb~
    can't wait to hear the whistling FE

    Just joined. No big projects yet. I am working on setting up a forge and foundry.
    I have successfully poured aluminum and I'm working my way up to bronze
    and iron.

    Cheers,
    Gary

    Hiya, right now just working on recovering from just getting married then into the NaNoWriMo thing (50,000 word novel in a month) so I'm not doing much of anything right now.

    On the back burner though: Fixing up and tricking out my bike trailer/ricksaw : Musical instruments out of scrap items : fighting marionettes : and I need to finish my vac-form table.

    Wheeee
