Most countries have one or several days on which fireworks are tradition. There seems to be something about fireworks that is liked by almost everyone. It is hard to say what exactly that is. It is many things. Some people, like me, are fascinated by the composition and construction of fireworks.
Fireworks are an interesting blend of science, tradition and art.
One of the purposes of this this page is to make pyrotechnics as a hobby more accepted and liked. Another reason is to shift some people's interests from making only loud bangs to more interesting and effectfull pyrotechnics. Furthermore, I hope that this page can provide beginners in pyrotechnics a safe start by providing some practical information. I spend quite some time finding information and hope to save other people some time. Finally, there are some sections on miscellaneous pyrotechnics related subjects I found interesting.
