Claims1
A method of converting conventional Class C fireworks having an explosive body portion and a safety fuse which extends therefrom into safer and louder firecrackers comprising the steps of:
- (A) forming a housing having a cylindrical side wall and first and second end portions of a size to completely receive the body portion of a conventional Class C firecracker therein so that an air space is created between the side walls of the cylindrical housing and the body portion of a conventional Class C firecracker,
- (B) inserting the conventional Class C firecracker within the cylindrical housing so as to be spaced inwardly of said side walls thereof and spaced inwardly of said end portions thereof and in such a manner that the safety fuse extends outwardly of said housing adjacent one end portion thereof,
- (C) closing the end portions of the cylindrical housing by inserting first and second material disks therein so as to firmly abut the conventional Class C firecracker and simultaneously engage the cylindrical side walls of said housing,
- (D) sealing the material disks to the cylindrical side walls of the housing by filling the end portions of said housing with a glue.
