I am tired, but not tired enough to sleep. I am making strange paper shapes and burning them for a good time. Photos will be shared.
First one, not very spectacular.
figure 2, 'onion sprig'
aflame
ashes look like beached jellyfish?
This one was too cool to burn, I made it a lampshade.
this one has a wick which I will soak with alcohol.
The supporting string failed immediately.
The bent/tensioned members failed after ~10 sec, but quite suddenly. They threw fire outwards. I'm going to think about how to make a paper fire catapult using this concept, please try yourself and post results if inclined!
