I did a post exactly like this, There is not much out there. I usually get my visco fuse from a 12 ball roman candle just cut it in half lengthwise with a hack saw, You will get fuse, stars, and And lift powder(black powder. EP's site has some good pictures of cut up roman candles.

You could try to make some of your own fuses. Just mix some potassium nitrate with some sugar and fill up a plastic straw. MAKE SURE TO TEST OUT THE BURN RATE BEFORE USING IT IN A DEVICE! Or, another simpler way is to make a line with match heads on some tape and roll it up.

They might ship fuse out of the U.S., but I know that about every company will sent books and videos out of the U.S.

I dont know if this is much help but i relised it is often cheaper to ship products from australia to america...not sure about canada. Because you see the prices are about the same..but the american dollar is about double our dollar so the product is like half price...i dont know how much it cost to ship something but
