Ever wanted to cause a huge fuckin fire? Well here's your chance to do that or just cause a huge fuckin mess. For those who aren't into widespread destruction I've included two versions of how to build this: "Fun" and "True Anarchist".
"fun" instructions:
1. Get the following:
-one Estes C6-3 engine (sold in packs of 3 at hobby stores everywhere)
-one pack of either contact cement or polysterene cement (also at hobby stores)
-one small plastic baggy
-one piece of cardboard (about 10"x10")
-one drinking straw
-some kleenex
-a model rocket igniter and ignitor plug (comes with engine)
-either a model rocket launch pad or look at the instruction to make a pad at bottom of page (you can get a pad for like $15 at a hobby store)
2. Cut 4 little triangles out of the cardboard, about 1 inch tall and 1 inch wide.
3. Make a vertical line with a pencil on the engine-this has to be STRAIGHT or your rocket is gonna fly crazy and go who knows where!
4. cut a 1" portion of the straw off and glue it to the engine-this has to be PERFECTLY LINED UP!
5. Glue the fins to the engine-try to keep these straight to and evenly spaced.
6. Tilt the baggie on its side so that anything you pour in it
will go into the corner. Pour the glue in until its about 1/2" deep. Tie it shut right above where the glue level is. Now cut off the rest of the bag so that you have a small glue filled packet.
7. Cut out a half circle about 2 1/2" in diameter out of the cardboard. Wrap it around to form a cone and staple or tape it closed. Trimthe bottom so that if you place it on the engine, the lip is about 1/8" long.
8. Carefully, without punturing it, put the baggie in this cone. Line the bottom of the cone with Kleenex so it covers the baggie from view.
9. Tape this on the top of your engine. the rocket itself is now complete.
10. Follow the launch instructions under the "True anarchist" version of the construction
"True Anarchist"
1. Get the following:
-one Estes D12-5 engine (sold in packs of 3 at hobby stores everywhere)
-5-10 packs of either contact cement or polysterene cement (also at hobby stores)
-one toilet paper tube(paper off of course)
-Saran Wrap
-one piece of cardboard (about 10"x10")
-one drinking straw
-some kleenex
-a model rocket igniter and ignitor plug (comes with engine)
-either a model rocket launch pad or look at the instruction to make a pad at bottom of page (you can get a pad for like $15 at a hobby store)
2. Cut 4 little triangles out of the cardboard, about 1 inch tall and 1 inch wide.
3. Make a vertical line with a pencil on the engine-this has to be STRAIGHT or your rocket is gonna fly crazy and go who knows where!
4. cut a 1" portion of the straw off and glue it to the edge of a 1"x1" square of cardboard. Glue the edge of this to the engine-this has to be PERFECTLY LINED UP!
5. Glue the fins to the engine-try to keep these straight to and evenly spaced.
6. Line the paper tube with Saran Wrap-Tape the edges shut and tie the bottom closed-this should be water tight. Fill the saran Wrap so that 2" of room is left at the top. Tie the top shut. Make sure no glue is leaking-if everything is okay then stuff the bottom of the tube with Kleenex
7. Cut out a half circle about 2 1/2" in diameter out of the cardboard. Wrap it around to form a cone and staple or tape it closed. Trim the bottom so that if you place it on the tube, the lip is about 1/8" long.
8. Attch the cone to the tube with glue. If any is leaking you'll have to start over.
9. Attach this to the top of your engine this on the top of your engine. the rocket itself is now complete.
10. Follow the launch instructions below.
Launch Instructions:
1. Set up your pad. If you don't have one, buy one or make one as described below.
2. Place the igniter in the engine and use the igniter plug to secure it.
3. Slide the rocket onto the launch rod through the straw. If your usin an Estes pad-use the "Maxi" (5mm) rod.
4. Attach the aligator clips from your launch controller to the ignitor. Be sure they aren't touching
5. Back up and press the launch button (if your usin estes, make sure your 'safety key' is in place). Hold it down until the rocket fires. Now run like hell.
6. Run straight away from the pad to avoid the rocket as it may burst over you. Once your about 100-200 fett away, look back at your rocket (Its the orange fire ball thats fallin out of the sky.
Note: Do this in an un-inhabited area where there aren't any trees unless you want to get your ass booted to jail.
How to make a launch pad:
1. Get:
-a metal dowel about 3 ft. long that can fit through your straw
-a bunch of wood
-flame retardant paint
-4 AA batteries
-30 ft. of wire
2. Assemble the wood to form a three legged stand:

3. Bore a hole 1" deep that barely fits your dowel into the center of your stand.
4.Spray paint the stand with the flame retardant paint.
5. Place the dowel into the hole. If neccessary secure it somehow.
6. Tape the batteries together in series (+ to - on all the batteries)
7. Tape a 15 ft. piece wire to the - end.
8. Where in the launch instructions it says to attach the alligator clips-just wrap the wire around the ignitor.
9. Wrap the remaining wire on the other side of the ignitor.
10. Instead of pressing the button, touch the free end of wire to the + end of the batteries to launch
