Andrew C Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Search the Blue Room for "Confetti Cannon"; 55 hits should be enough... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 You have a couple of basic choices, which are all down to what fires the confetti into the air... 1. By using a pyrotechnic devices, usually a maroon of one size or anotheror2. By using a compressed gas, usually CO2. The first method has a side effect which you may or may not want ie a big bang - very loud. If you can stand that then it'll work for you. If you want something quieter than use a CO2 fired unit. The next thing to consider is the amount of confetti you want to launch. Use the search function, have a read and then come back with specific questions if they aren't answered in previous posts.

Ynot Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Hi , I want to use a confetti cannon for a christmas concert...OK.If you want to use the pyro version, how many actual cannons do you need?We over-bought last year for panto, so I have some left in my lock-up cupboard that I'd be happy to sell on to you if they suit. You'll need a leMaitre angled pod for each, though, and a firing unit.If you're interested, PM me and we can discuss details. (I'm not too far away from Cambridge).

However, please be careful as I know of one very near nasty accident caused by people not using a pyro confetti cartridge properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
