How to Make Fireworks

Alright everyone, get ready for this.  You know how you can only get fireworks for about a month, usually depending on where you live, and during that time frame, they're a bit too expensive, especially if you want to make it a good time.

I've done this personally, and it adds up to about 7$, each firework you make lasts about 20 seconds depending on if you did it well enough.  And the blackpowder, cremora, and fuse come in huge packs that will last you quite a lot of fireworks.  Dairy creamer works extremely well instead of cremora if you're unable to find it.

And now, the walkthrough.

I remember making these as a kid, extra magnesium was added to get the huge sparks.
