      Standard time fuse is still in common use in all types of demolitions fyi. There’s actually a NATO STANAG for it.

          Nope! It’s still used almost everywhere. Commonly used as a backup on demolition setups like a ring-main.

          Not so sure about civilian applications in demolitions or pyrotechnics but most global militaries still use it from what I’ve read.

            Well my annoying neighbors 17 year old kid must have like 10 fucking miles of it, and uses it constantly to set off sugar smoke bombs he cooks up in his mama’s barn kitchen. Friggin hooligan
