[ARTS] flashbulbs

[Mike Parker]

I've been really happy with e-match kits from Quickburst.  Go to 
http://www.quickburst.net and click on the link for "E-Match Kits". If you 
e-mail them they will make them with longer leads as the normal 12" leads 
are not really what we want in most situations.  Also, the dip kit makes 
enough dip for far more e-matches than come with the kit.  You can buy extra 
pre-soldered e-match heads to solve this problem.  The kit comes with 20 
match heads but I think it makes enough dip for maybe 50 or so match heads. 
I make it on the kitchen table and the wife says, "oh, mixing up another 
batch of  'you don't wanna know', I see".  Apparently the first time she 
asked me what I was making I must have said "you don't wanna know".  Anyway, 
so far, they work very reliably, and yes, I've used them with ARTS as well 
as MAWD.

Mike
