For those of us who celebrate the 4th of July, I wish you a happy day of launching things, blowing stuff up, and making noise!

We don't do fireworks because the neighbors do it for us :D
So I took out the golf baller, connected to the compressor and blew off a bunch of semi auto blanks :lol:

That's kind of lame. Fireworks are the most fun when you do it yourself, its like buying a pre made cannon.
Yeah, it's that important.

Pre-made can be safer as well as better. I'd rather not roll my own car or Colt 45. Some things are better and cheaper when mass produced.
