HI i am thinking of doing some Wire wool spinning and i was wundering if it would be possible to do it with just a small amouth of wool. So that there would only be only a small amount of sparckles : like a rain of sparks surrounding me It would really look nice and be less dangerous.. anyway let me know if you tried anything like that Tanx!

Yes i did read it but there is no specification what so ever about a low amout of Wire wool. What i wanna know is: how does it react with a small amout of Wire wool tanx

It should just give you a shorter burn time. I'm not sure about less sparks but then I don't do Wire wool that often.

There's only one way to find out. I'll try it out tonight and report back.

less Wire wool is a bit crap and very disappointing

few sparks and only for a few secs

I find the less you pack in the less likely it is to burn at all....The cages are meant to be pretty tightly packed to get the effect.

not so; to get the maximum effect you want many strips in there yes, but you don't want them tightly packed otherwise they just clump together instead of showering out longer
