Traditions A1264 Cannon Fuse 15 Feet

In the realm of artillery, precision and preparation are paramount. The art of firing a cannon demands respect for both safety and accuracy. Before you engage your cannon in action, it is essential to measure the burn rate of your fuse—a crucial step that can make all the difference between success and miscalculation.

To begin, cut a foot-long section from your fuse roll. This length serves as a standard measurement to determine how swiftly or slowly your chosen fuse will burn under controlled conditions. Light this segment in an open, safe area where external factors such as wind or moisture cannot interfere with its natural pace.

Once ignited, time the burning process meticulously with an accurate stopwatch or timer. Ideally, one foot should take approximately 30 seconds to combust completely. This timing ensures that when applied practically during live firing exercises, you have sufficient control over ignition sequences—allowing for precise coordination between lighting and projectile deployment.

With this knowledge firmly established through empirical testing rather than assumption alone; now stands ready not just any operator but an informed marksman prepared confidently for operation.
