A few minutes ago I was browsing a canadian pyro's site. He had a section for places to get stuff when you live in canada, and one of the sites he gave was "cannonfuse.com". They have very good fuse there, and apparently they ship to canada.

I've been trying to find it, but I have no idea where I found it the first time. I did a search on "video" in the Backyard Ballistics forum, looking for videos of crap blowing up, and I think it was in one of the threads that I found that link, but I've looked at every thread I went to and I can't find it. I have no idea how else I would've gotten to that page, but I'll keep looking and let you know if I find it.

I have serched for 2 years on this and the final conclusion is that there is NO place that sells fuse to Canada. Ebay dosent allow fuse either. I did find one place, but only selled to fully licenced companys IE: movie productions, theatre effects ect.

What do I do for fuse? Class C fireworks, or homemade fuses. Yeah it sucks, but there is no other way.

All I find is this (info): http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2941217736&category=317

Even if they did sell fuse, I dont think they would ever sell it to canada.

Well, the guy at cannonfuse.com would lose money by going through Ebay, there's a seller's fee, so of course he puts instructions/his website up there.

an easy cheap way of getting good fuses is to use those birthday sparkers. they burn at a very high temp and will light almost anything no problem

This is a good fuse, but the size of the sparklers dosen't really go well in comps that u need to burn fast, not is it worth the bulk of the actual sparklers.

In general, the larger the firework (longer safety distance) - the longer the fuse, makes sense doesn't it.

Roman candles. Most roman candles have a long (8-10 inch) visco fuse running down the middle. Unfortunately, it's very thin.

Sorry bout this but can someone tell me how paypal works, i know you send money over the net but do you hook it up to your bank account or how could you get the money in there without a visa or credit card?

Sorry about the stupid question.
