Oh I wish I knew.
I don't have much knowledge in the fire category.
Though I did see a video of a tiny gag.
Its like a windup that shoots sparks, but not the way NPH does.
I can look around because i know I've stumbled across it before.

So I found a this.
You'll have to skip to the end because its reeeeallly long

I think the kid on the video is the closest to what NPH does, although he overfilled his flash unit a bit. The website he mentions on his video would be the best place to look for this. Don't believe what he says about "perfectly safe indoors." Theatre Effects doesn't suggest using this over carpeting as it will burn holes.

A friend of mine bought that.
I don't want to "expose" the method but lets just say that it is best done when you're sitting in a table so you can hide your hands.
It's nothing like what Neil does
