To the Moon and Back Rocket

th.jpg

These are my Instructions for a rocket shell. You may ask, how will it help with your daily life? Well it, won't, but it will make any event more fun.

Supplies

1L empty plastic bottle (like a pop bottle)

Sandpaper

Cardboard

Construction paper, or cardstock paper

Acrylic paint

1 rocket firework engine

Scissors

Paintbrushes

Prep Bottle

So when you get the 1 liter, empty it out or drink it all if you want :) Remove labels and cut off the end with the lid and create your own tip.

Create the Rocket Cone and Fins

Get a big cardboard box and then cut it with a box cutter really gently into the correct pieces. For the tip of the rocket, use the construction paper or cardstock paper and create a cone shape that is big enough to just fit over the top of the empty bottle.

Make Cuts on Bottle

Insert the box cutter in your bottle and cut off the top of the bottle and then cut

Assemble Rocket

Hot glue the cardboard correctly on the bottle

Make It Grate

And put any design on it :) (with acrylic paint)
