Know anybody and what they charge per charge? I've got 3 small check dams that might need 2 charges in one and one in the other. Got all the bigs ones last year and found these on a ditch that controls my whole south end.

The problem with tannerite is that you can pay someone to come do it with explosives for the cost of tannerite. In that video he used 36 lbs. at $80 a lb thats expensive. Unless you know where you can buy it cheaper.

That guy used 36 pounds while another video shows guys with 3/4 of a pound in water bottles blowing dams. Any consensus from the experts on how much can/should be used and how big of a boom it makes for us interested on-lookers?

You can normally find it online for around $7-8 a lbs. even seen a 40 lbs. bulk package for $250!

I take a 1.5" PVC cut into pieces about 3-4 long, filled with tannerite and glue capped on both ends. This will hold approx three pounds of tannerite and when the pipe is pressed deep into the dam will blow a 3-4 foot wide chunk out.

Very effective if you can hit it without breaking the PVC from a glancing shot. I think academy was selling a 10 pound box kit for $80?
