Pak#2 -= How to Make a Simple Rocket Launcher =-
|
||
|
|
||
|
Ok, here's a quick little file that I put together just in time for
|
||
|
everyone with left-overs from the Forth of July. It involves making a watered
|
||
|
-down 'rocket' laucher. Here's what you'll need...
|
||
|
|
||
|
Materials:
|
||
|
|
||
|
Plenty of Bottle Rockets (with sticks and fuses intact)
|
||
|
A Whiffle Bat
|
||
|
Matches/Lighter
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
What to do:
|
||
|
|
||
|
Take your Whiffle bat, and examine the bottom of the handle. On most
|
||
|
Whiffle Ball Bats there is a small hole drilled into the bottom of them. If
|
||
|
yours doesn't have one, then DRILL ONE! If you're planning on using a bat
|
||
|
that was filled with paper or something, it's probably a better idea to just
|
||
|
go out and buy a new bat, they're pretty cheap afterall. Some people like to
|
||
|
saw off the top of the bat, but that's a bad idea, since after 50 or so
|
||
|
'shots' the plastic will start to melt, and the hole in the bottom will
|
||
|
widen, and you'll probably end up with a lit bottle rocket at your feet. At
|
||
|
any rate, now you're set. Simply take the stick end of the Bottle Rocket,
|
||
|
and put in down that hole in the bottom of the handle. Make sure that the
|
||
|
fuse is sticking out sideways. All you have to do is aim the end of the bat
|
||
|
at your target, and light the fuse. The whole thing will work like a Roman
|
||
|
Candle, except with the long bat, you don't have to worry about burning your
|
||
|
hand...
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
More fun things to do:
|
||
|
|
||
|
Besides the sheer fun of being able to fire small rockets at anything
|
||
|
you want, there's lots of other things to do. This is a great way to get
|
||
|
revenge on someone with a pool, you just aim the bat over the fence, and run
|
||
|
like hell before the thing hits the water (you *did* use waterproofed rockets
|
||
|
and fuses, didn't you?) If you drive, a friend (in the passenger seat of
|
||
|
course) can experiment with a nasty new version of MailBox Baseball :)
|
||
|
...and if you're stuck on a measily littlebike, you can still go flying down
|
||
|
any hill and shoot at anything you like, and still be gone long before anyone
|
||
|
becomes the wiser...
