Boumbah In reply to DreamJ [2010-04-14 21:07:25 +0000 UTC]

What do you mean by lighted like that?
In this photo I've just used a power drill with an aluminium pole on the end.
Steel wool is attached to the pole and lit with a lighter.
I then held it above my head, and started the drill up!
As the steel wool smolders, parts fly off of it leaving spark trails.

VERY cool, what are you using to spin the wool? Power drill?

Thanks
Yeah, made a jig this week with a powerdrill and a piece of aluminium channel.
Got a hook on the end made from a coat hanger, and the wool just gets hooked on that!

Sweet, I always used to get a half dozen bits of wire from burned or stripped sparklers and make a length about 1 1/2 metres long with the wool on the end, then manually swing it round. I like the drill idea though!
