Black Match Updates: Harley Johnson and Nick are making 300 Quick Match Tubes. David Watson is making 160ft of Black Match, Mike is looking to donate 200ft, Brent made a test batch of 100ft and is going to host a build day at his shop after the 4th. This puts us at 460ft of match made and we only need to make another 1340ft of black match for the Mascleta Sting for Fall PyroFest.
Is anyone working on the little flash buckets, yet?
I just finished 150 ft of blackmatch. Will have another 450 ft as soon as weather permitting.
A teaser from the NTD team that came to see us and talk fireworks.
Can’t wait,
Making quick match tubes.
If you can find one of those old round curtain rods with the slit for the little plastic curtain hanger pieces to move back and forth, those make excellent leader pipe forms. You simply insert the edge of the paper into the slit and roll.
I know turtle saving straws when I see them.
Do you have a machine or do you do them one at a time I just got done doing 3000 24inch ones and now started doing 36 inch one have to do 3000 of them also. Do you have a video on how you do it
Had a great time with Kay and her team from NTD. Hope they can make something with all my ramblings. Keep an eye out for the interview on July 4th
Best time I had in a long time.. Thanks, NS.
I know I've talked to a few members that make Black Match, looking for help for the Mascleta String.
Are you looking for supplies, match pipe, match, or labor making it and setting it up? All of the above? Are you wanting everything to be handmade?
I can help with most everything. Let me know what is needed.
I have a lot of this already made. What exactly are you needing? Give me a call if you wish.
Nick Hill's display for his Dad. With Drone footage.
Wow, watch this video casted to a big screen TV. Amazing!
Other than salutes, what can we do to mix it up??? Should we make it a day time or night time Mascleta???
There is a really Awesome Fireball Mushroom cloud salute we can make if someone has some Uranium.
Gotta have some whistles, rhythmic sections, and growing crescendo to massive boom! Some daytime smoke effects would be cool. Anyone with a bunch of concussion mortars?
Combined with some mines. I like the timing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pvVD9i1Pxo&t=1s
Example Small Chain: youtu.be/Uph6dLQu88s?t=20
Here's one of my favorite displays on YT.. can probably draw some inspiration from here as the whole show is choreographed really well. I like those fish looking whistlers to small salutes at the beginning and the buzzing go getters at around the 5:10 mark. youtu.be/fg6Ap7Q98tQ
large crackle mines under salutes maybe? think <sizz><boom!> Colored smoke effects as well
Example 1: youtu.be/9oJNGJVglHA
Work Day Finished! Massive thank you to Nemo Boss, Ken Purcell, Ross, Betty Mahieu Sainz, Jose Sainz, Nick Sainz, and new member Carlos. All the help was needed and the final product looked GREAT. Thanks Team.
Carlos was a bad ass. Imagine driving two hours to work your butt off and then drive two hours home. Thanks Carlos!
Nice!!

Deep thanks to John Gicante, our crew member running Security! An "outside the ring" view of the 360 Display:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBGOAAVFPrA
Quite impressive! We are all coming for the 4th!
It was spectacular from the “outside” looking in. I can only imagine how awesome it was from the “inside”.
This is what it looked out outside the ring.
Bryan Bartlow inspiration for this year haha. Check out the group as well.
Group Buy Link:
talk.fireants.org/t/pat-chems-group-buy-2021/436
Why am I just getting this now, post event?
Hey everyone, it looks like we are not going to hit the quantity discounts needed to make the group buy worth covering shipping. So I've changed it to a, PGI pick up group buy. If you want to piggy back my order, give me a call by 5-21-21. My number is in the Group Buy discussion in the link above. Thanks, Nick
Great Event! I've got some specific thanks to hand out, but thank you to everyone who attended Pyrofest!
My thanks to:
Nick Sainz, PAT President, who has tirelessly built up the club's membership and social media presence since 2017. Many don't realize it takes Nick months of planning, phone calls, emails, and posting to make an event happen.
Rex & Roy Nelson, our hosts at Caddo Mills for over the last 20 years! Our Events can't happen without generous landowners. Rex went above and beyond making room in his store and warehouse for classes & building. He also used his bulldozer to bring countless loads of soil to soak up the pools of water & mud where everyone was walking.
Betty Sainz, who generously ran registration all weekend, a difficult task, but also answered questions, scheduled classes(and made sure they happened) and food deliveries(food on Sat. saved my bacon!).
Robin Eaton, General Manager of Nelson's Fireworks, thoughtfully opened & closed the site both early & late, answered questions, and looked after all the attendee's.
Ken Purcell, you probably saw him with his Ladybugs, but he runs the website and financial side of the PAT Club. Without him, the club doesn't work.
Carl and Steve from Big Boom Pyro. They pulled the display permits for the event and brought the heavy gear & product for the Hill Memorial Display. They've been heavily supporting the club like this for years.
Harley Johnson and Ross Dusenbury, they've been helping Nick cleanup all of PAT's containers, gear, & supplies over many weekends. They also helped build the rocket rodeo for the Ken Barton Memorial Display(but not the 1st rocket header...), and taught rocket building all weekend. Peggy Barton attended Pyrofest and was deeply appreciative of the Memorial Display. Harley helped us before the event by collating and labeling the product for the 360 Display, no small task. And Ross brought a generator and a massive battery bank so we could power PA's at the event.
Nick Petrie, not only by building big Booms for PAT Events for almost 20 years, but he brought his cool sound system out for music at the 360 Display, even with it being a last minute ask.
Nick & Rachel Hill, they spent months of planning, choreography, and building to put on their Hill Memorial Display. Wow, the wheel alone was worth the price of admission, thanks to Grant Cox & friends for putting the wheel together and getting it to Pyrofest.
John White, a master builder, taught the 4" shell class for a large group and also did some one on one's. Used his WASP, graciously answered many many questions, his teaching background was obvious. I still owe him the right flavor of ice cream, but that's another matter.
Chris & Matt Roth, spent months building over 20 shells, 3" - 12", & rockets, to launch at the event. It was clearly evident why they are both PGI 1st place trophy winners.
USG Pyrotechnics, brought their gang of helpers who basically lifted, moved, cabled, and cleaned up anything that was needed at the event. They offered their gas mine knowledge and also hosted their Afterglow with David on the grill.
Chris Stasey, managed the Spirit of 76 Group Buy and hauled product to the Event so club members could just pickup their product on site.
Brent Black, brought heavy gear and precisely wired the many custom shells & rockets. And he did some quick rewiring of some 8" shells, but not his fault...
James Howard & Johnny Holguin, James built a massive FrankenCake for the finale of Saturday night. They also carefully assembled the 8-gas mines for the 360 Display.
Ray Clark, brought the heavy gear for the 360 Display and custom shells, but also taught the Creamora Class that was well attended and received.
Rick "The" Boss, designed, choreographed, ordered product, and Led the 360 Display. Deep thanks to Rick and the great team that assembled, deployed, and cleaned up the 360 display, particular thanks to Michael Carr & Alexis Chernosky for making sure those angles were correct!
I haven't specifically thanked everyone who deserves it, but thank you to every PAT Member.
I hope to see you all in Austin in the Fall,
JJ
Wish I could have made, it looks like it went great... I'll be there in Austin this fall for sure.
Nemo Boss, Thank You!!! I really pushed hard on this event, while you surely wanted to say no, I'm so glad you didn't. This was a pinnacle event for me! I'm still in shock, as I watch videos and photos from the event reminding me of all that went on. If you asked me what I did all event, I couldn't tell you. Thank you to everyone that came! Now to figure out what lessons we learned and how we can be better at the next event!
LOVE hosting pyro event and welcoming familiar and new faces to Caddo Nelson’s. Great group of guys and ladies😉! Plus, I get the privilege of watching a spectacular show!!🥳. Win win!!
As always, it’s our pleasure to be a part of the group and assist anyone in the group that needs it. See y’all soon enough 😎
Thank you pyro family for your support and awesome donations to the memorial display. It was the perfect way to celebrate Nick and his dad’s birthday. We love you all and are grateful for each of you!❤️
Upload Your PyroFest Images and Videos HERE:

Warning, I think you have to upload from a computer. Many members are having issues from their phones. I'm looking into more phone friendly options for the future. I'm open to suggestions if you know any.

Absolutely beautiful! Thank you!
Great show. I want to come make some boom booms. This looks like my cup of tea.
Looks like Y’all did a fantastic job!
For all you gardeners a swarm of Ladybugs is called a "loveliness". We be letting them fly later tonight.
Is that you guys we can hear all the way here in Farmersville? Sounds like bombs exploding. Started about 8:40 ish pm.
Post the video
Anybody want to pop some firecrackers this weekend?!?! Let’s go.

Friday will have Open Shooting, Manufacturing, and Classes.

Hey Nick Weather is supposed to be getting pretty bad tomorrow/Sat. Are things still all systems go?
A while bunch of army parachute guys to be fired off? LOL
I’ll be there late Friday. I hope before dark
Immortalized my crazy Pyro decision on my torches. Who needs to rest after spine surgery when PyroFest is the next day.
Nice.. I understand.. I'm recovering from my fourth spine surgery and I'm still trying to do shows..
Put me down for 2
We will be making Flash for Rocket headers, so why not teach a class on making salutes.
Friday will have multiple opportunities to learn all the tricks to E-Matching product for displays & electronic firing.
As I get into my retirement I am not using my cobra 🐍 system and am ready to let it go with three boxes with 18 cues each and one control module. See y’all there.
Harley is planning on teaching how to make Black Powder at Spring PyroFest.
Does he have a video i can buy , i want to go so bad but overloaded with work and moving 😫
Need some Sali or Benzy classes lol. Making some Sali right now.
Another class added, Chris Roth will be teaching how to start star cores for rolling stars.
Is there a specified time for this?
This is my trouble, is rolling stars.
Some history and most of all a taste of what happens at PyroFest!
Jackie Marie Photography Thanks again for putting this video together for us a few years ago. We still have so few videos that show how broad our group and the activities we do are.
All the Official Classes at PAT Spring PyroFest in Caddo Mills, Tx. Thanks for all the support from our members putting on these classes.
When will you be having another pyro fest?
Jeremy and USG will be leading the Fuel Mines Class at Spring PyroFest.
Jeremy Jandreau I found a picture, now your stuck teaching the class. LOL
I can help with this one if needed, can bring mines etc (including "Big Jim 12"/10 gallon)
I want to go so bad
I hope Fall PYROFEST is as good this year’s Spring PYROFEST, hoping to bring my son along this Fall. Unfortunately I can’t make the Spring PYROFEST.
The event is just around the corner. If your coming, please mark as coming so we can plan for you!

If anyone wants to bring some Lady Bugs we will plan to make several chains of them for our amusement! Several hundred are quite impressive for a Class C item.
Nick Sainz will be teaching the hand pound rockets class. This time with his fingers not getting smashed. 😛
It's not like you were smashing them but everyone loved making rockets!
That’s a perfect caption for the photo 😂
Note the shirt I’m supporting in the background Kevin 😉
Harley Johnson will be teaching 1lb Hydraulic Pressed BP Rockets at Spring PyroFest.
I want one of those press's so bad. Maybe after the forth of July from working 3 shows back to back to back I'll be close enough to get one.
More Classes At Spring PyroFest. JJ is going to teach the process and firing of Cremora Mines. This is a very cool Fire Ball effect.
Wow! Can’t wait!
Pallet of Creamer...please
Awesome!
Class Supplies
I wonder how successful this class will be? Should we warn Costco to pull the pallets of creamer down???
Be sure you've got lots of Dawn liquid. They can get really greasy!
Group Buy Cut off is in 2 Days. Get those orders in.

Make sure you don't miss John's Shell Building Class!
Do we need to reserve? Or is it first come first served
Keep Up the excitement for PYROFEST on 4-23 to 4-25. Grant J Cox just posted his Gerbs video. Watch to the END!
www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjV80fmPpNU
Ah thanks for posting! This was basically just intended to be a slightly more fun way to test out some ideas.. Not everything worked as planned, but it served as a pretty good learning experience. Glad you enjoyed it! Speaking of learning, if anyone has tips for a good waterfall effect, I'm all ears... The build process for this project gave me a personal vendetta against fairy fountains..
Big thanks to John White for helping Nick Hill build a memorial shell with his Dad’s ashes for the memorial display at PyroFest.

Can’t wait till Jajaira gives me one!!
Great
Nice
It looks like many of our Pyros have survived SNOVID-21. If I haven't talked to you yet, hope all is well!!!
PAT members can you help the Hills make our Intro Display a bit NICER???Lets make the Spring Opening Display a little nicer. Can you help by bringing some extra product to PyroFest for Nick???
More good news Nick Hill, just got off the phone with the Roth family. They are wanting to bring a 10" Purple to White Glitter with rising effects for your opener. I'll text you the info so you can plan for this!
The 4-12 grebs/ fountains. I’m thinking A front wall kind of thing like a fan of lgold or silver. Nick Sainz this could be class kind of thing if you want/can build them on Friday or something. I have never built gerbs myself. I think Grant is playing around with grebs.
Nick Hill make sure to write in the comments anything in particular that would make this display that little bit better! Also, the SALUTES are on Ross Dusenbury, Harley Johnson, and ME. We will get those together for you. Give me a call and we can talk size.
Yes, yes, yes, PAT's Texas Team led by Lead Shooter - James Howard got selected to compete in the Pro-Am at Sky Wars!𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗸𝘆 𝗪𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟭 𝗣𝗿𝗼-𝗔𝗺 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗲𝘁𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀
This year was our toughest selection process yet based upon the applicant’s sheer talent plus the heightened level of interest in our show. But we did it…and wow oh wow are you gonna love this lineup!
And now (drum roll please), we at MOpyro proudly introduce the Sky Wars 2021 Pro-Am Competitors:
- Alfredo “AJ” Plata from Sandwich, IL.
- Scott Schuh from Neenah, WI
- James Howard from San Antonio, TX
A little background: Pro-Am shows (the 1.4g competition) are six to eight minute long pyromusicals where these experts are judged on concept, synchronization, soundtrack, technical design and execution. The show must be created with consumer fireworks - most of which you could buy at your local fireworks stand. The proud winner gets $$$, a way cool trophy, an invite for our 2023 Champion of Champions show and, of course, bragging rights!
We are now in our second round of ticket sales…and way more than halfway sold out for our 9.25.2021 show. That means hurry up and get yours today at skywarsevent.com.
#skywarsevent
Deep south Texan here! Will be attending my first firework festival and Skywars is that festival gonna be great to see some Texans putting on a show!
That should be fun
I’ll be there to help!! 😊
More Updates for Spring PyroFest. Nick and Rachael Hill will be leading the opening display. The display will be dedicated to Nick's Dad Bill. Knowing Nick this will be a fun display and I've heard there will be some REAL BOOMERS to enjoy! The Display will be mostly 1.4 with some 1.3 spice sprinkled in.
Comment below if you would like to help with planning the display. This is a great chance to get hands on with a firing system.
Nick Hill, please accept my sincere condolences on your family's loss. On a better note, we'd like to donate a large shell for the occasion, if you can fit it in.
The display is primarily going to be gold willows,brocade and nishiki. The display is going to be awesome as it is, but there is room for the club to add to the display if anyone would like to. 4-12 ground EFXs (thinking like grebs or fountains) 2-4 big shells (6”- 12”) Right now the biggest shell is a 6” shell Maybe even 21 ground salutes. (Thinking like 21 gun salute)
Members have asked if we will be teaching rockets at Spring PyroFest and the answer is YES! Nick will be leading the class again. For the parents attending, this is an easy skill to learn and Nick can set you up to press a few rockets with your kids. These are always a SMILE maker! If yuo have any question please ask in the comments.
If we don't have a show I'll bring my tooling.
Where is it located?

Favorite option for disposing of 800,000 bottle rockets so far, do the 2016 rocket boxes 100x larger! Video showing the effect for everyone to imagine.
vimeo.com/168165694#t=274s
I need your advice,
Do we help dispose 20 pallets of stick rockets? If so what could we make with them?
Im with making wheels or what in Mexico is called a castillo aka castles. Its basically a shaped of what ever u want with wheels, crackers n whistles.
Make some multi stage rockets
So many ice cream pail (carboard sonotube is a bit more Earth-friendly) girandolas!
I would go for mass launch. It’s the only logical thing to do. If enough rockets maybe break a Guinness record or something... but has to be a lot lol more than 80,000.
I will help.
I'd say take them and light em up at events.
Wheels?
THAT'S SOOOOOOO AWESOME !!
What ended up being the outcome of this decision. Did we decide to receive these. never saw an update.
Disposal is something that a lot of people can learn. I'm terms of cool things I've always wanted to experiment with tube launched rocket cakes
How many rockets come to a case?
Make a Maga Saturn missile
Drivers for wheels and other moving effects, you could make some successive line rockets with them.
Can always make bigger rockets from them. I belive the ones u guys are talking about are more like the 8/12oz rockets like glitter or bees ones that come 72 in a cs.
Here is the rocket run from an up coming PyroFest Austin Location. Thanks for the introduction to this fireworks supporting land owner Matt Schoen. Having another shoot site is amazing.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.Super nice flight of rockets! As part of PATs survival we have been limited to serving only North Texas. So good to hear about working on additional locations. Building the club back up to have more events at more locations.
Austin! Sweet. That’s my area
PAT Stickers!!! Going to add these to the site soon.
Very nice. Should put those on the side of rain boots and hand them out to members.
Put me down for a couple
Need.
