I don't always make rocket fuel, but when I do, I like to do it as close as possible to my living room. That way if anything goes energetically wrong, there's a very short distance to all the polyurethane foam in the couches to ignite.
It's been said 1 million times already. My anxiety went through the roof watching you cook that inside. When I was a teen I was showing my older brother how to do this. I left him to mix it for about a minute. Come back and he is overly excited, saying "Look! If you turn up the heat it" *WOOF!* It turns into a pot of fire. We got lucky as all of the windows were open and I was able to toss it outside, then run out and sprayed it with the hose. Black soot everywhere, burn marks on the ceiling to the floor, broken screen, crying from burns on my arm....and probably the most well-earned beating by my grandmother. And it could have gone worse...
I was cooking the same mixture outside when I was about 14. I looked over the pot at jussst the wrong moment, and it ignited and left me with huge red burn marks on my face. No lasting damage luckily because I got out of the way in time. Could have horribly mutilated myself though.
My tips from personal experience: Use xylitol instead of sugar. Lower melting point and better performance as you avoid caramelisation Preheat your KNO3 to get rid of moisture. Roll up a thin tube of fuel in some paper to make a fuse. Coating a string in fuel can work but is much less reliable in my experience. Add red iron oxide (1%) - this improves burn rate
@@baraka629 Disregard the concept of drying your potassium nitrate when close to the ocean. Instead, know that KNO3 is water soluble, as is sugar. Take your desired amounts of KNO3, and add warm water while stirring gently until dissolved. Do the same for your sugar. Take both the sugar solution and the nitrate solution, and mix them together in a single pan. Put the pan on a low heat, and bring it to a low boil. Because the solutions will merge under the raised heat of the water, you can keep the mix at low heat and they will become a single mix (solubility increases as the water temp increases).

If it begins to darken quickly or in spots: remove from heat immediately. If the mix is reduced to a beige paste: remove from heat and immediately pour in desired tube and compress, causing it to take shape. Air bubbles in your fuel = explosions in your takeoff. Up to 2% rust can be added to increase burn speed, although burn temperature and pressure will increase as well, causing additional strain on the rocket body and nozzle. Rust will turn the entire mix quite red, and should be added only when the paste is near complete. Up to 14% aluminium powder can be added in the place of rust. This will drastically increase burn speed and pressure, as well as heavily shorten burn time, although these fuels produce the greatest strain on a rocket system short of professional grade fuels like Ammonium Perchlorate.

I've done this many times in my old rocket building days. Some tips. Get a portable electric stove and do this outside. A large frying pan is less work and is less prone to burning the sugar that a small deep casserole. For those who have never done this before two warnings!! 1) NOTHING is more painful than a liquid sugar burn on your skin. 2) Do not underestimate the power of your engine. They can go high, and they are fast. They can dis-lodge test stands.
@@tsmith7070 Can't tell you. All I can tell you is that because of the stickiness of the sugar, it's hard to wipe off your skin quickly and it burns and burns.
@@tsmith7070 Sugar carries a lot of heat and you can't wipe it off of your skin; it you try to wipe it off it just gets smeared around and you get a bigger burn. I've never been burned by lime so I couldn't tell you what that's like.
Awesome job! That seemed to burn pretty well! For anyone considering duplicating these efforts, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DO NOT COOK ROCKET FUEL IN YOUR HOME!!!

Few tips: Leave both ends open. Install the coring rod first (well greased), using some clay to hold it in place on the bottom end. This will form the nozzle later. THEN pour the mixture around it. Once the mixture has solidified, pull the rod out and close off the end with more clay. Gets you a more uniform and reliable rocket motor.
If the sugar and the KNO3 were dilluted in water first, then this water is evaporated, the mix is more homogeneous thus the burning is better, and for make it more malleable and easy to pour in the tube, a small amount of corn syrup helps. Obviously, with a nozzle the power will be higher and the pressure achieved in the chamber will be substantially high. Regards!
Having done a lot of rocket candy in my teens I can say that getting the water out afterwards is really hard. The mixture is hygroscopic so it doesn't even dry out in a low temperature oven. You end up with a mixture that always has a bit of water left that eats up some of the power. I tried various polar and non polar solvents but never found anything better than water that dissolved both the sugar and the saltpeter
Haha been there, done that. Like 20 years ago, great memories :D Some remarks: 1. Don't use sugar. It's for noobs. You see the brown color? That is caramelization, we don't want that. Use sorbitol or some other sugar for diabetics. It does not caramelize, burns much better, less smoke and most importantly: Safety. It is much less likely to go off when smelting, you can heat it more and as it does not caramelize it is less viscous, easier pouring. 2. Put in the rod for the bore before you pour your rocket fuel in. No work necessary at all ramming that rod through your almost solidified fuel. 3. Do it outside. Don't do it in the living room omfg :D We did it in the garage and outside and still fucked up enough of our clothes or some plants when washing our equipment and too much kno3 landed somehwere... 4. Wear at least minimum level of protective clothes, sandals are not good. I know as kids we were all experts after handling pyrotechniques for 3 weeks or more, but still it's worth it, especially if you show it in a tutorial on youtube. 5. Use some kind of nozzle. You will be surprised how much faster and higher your rocket goes. Especially if you are already a pro igniting with electricity. Then you can easily ignite without damaging your nozzle. Back in our days we made the nozzle from cement, nowadays you can buy so much awesome stuff on ebay, like oven glue, oven cement and what not, that we just did not have 20 years ago. You can make awesome nozzles with that.
The cheap cat litter when mixed with water to a clay then shaped makes good cheap nozzles. Fasten the nozzle securely or use water pipe and Pratleys putty 😂

A very long long time ago we used to do this to make smoke bombs, we would shape it as it cooled and stick a couple match heads in them. Strike and toss. One evening in our tent we let the goop get too hot!! A rocket motor/smoke bomb going off in an exposed area made of canvas. Tent gone, sleeping bags gone.

Yes when I was a bit younger, this formulae for 'caramel candy' rocket fuel was in the DIY Rocket manual from the Southwest Texas Rocketry Society handbook
We made many caramel candy rockets, as well as smaller black powder ones, back in the '60s. lots of good advice here, especially concerning safety. We used a baby bottle warmer and did it outside. The quantity of fuel made here in the kitchen is frightening- if it caught, you'd probably burn the house down. It was also cool to burn off the residue in the bottle warmer after a pour- quite an impressive flame shooting into the sky.
The best way to close off and end of a cardboard tube is to soak that end in warm water. When the cardboard becomes soft, “gently” fold it over to close the end. Once folded over lightly tap the folds on a flat surface. Then, stand the tube up and let the damp cardboard end dry completely.
As a kid back around 1970s, I did exactly what this dude is doing AND IT BLEW UP!! BE CAREFUL if you don't stir VERY carefully and any section gets too hot and it will all combust. GOTTA stir and go slow.
Yea, go to the dollar store and get a single burner. Then do it in the middle of the yard. I about caught the house on fire cooking it in the porch. Just a small pot and fire went to the ceiling, across the soffit, around the gutter and about 10' in the air. I grabbed the pot and slung it in the yard . Scared the hell out of me.😂

Use powdered sugar instead of granulated sugar and no heat is required. Mix well. Insert a wooden (or metal) dowel in the middle of the tube. Tamp the mixture into the tube with a large wooden dowel with a hole drilled in the middle (for clearance with the center dowel). Pull out the center dowel. Put fins on the base of the rocket. Be sure to have a phone with 911 on your speed-dial and a friend on hand for when the rocket blows up in your face.
My recommendations: - Add enough water to the nitrate/sugar mixture to cause the sugar to dissolve in the water, then heat it in a non-stick frying pan until the water is gone. This will ensure the best possible mixture of the two powders and reduce the possibility of it igniting while heating dry materials. - When you boil off the water, the resulting mixture will be hot and stiff so it isn't as easy to pour. If you let it cool, it will become hard and brittle. If you let it cool and harden, you can use a rock tumbler, some 10mm ball bearings, and pieces of the fully dried mixture that you break up with a hammer inside of a ziploc bag. You can pulverize it into a fine powder using the tumbler and BBs. The powder then packs very nicely ensuring there are no voids that would cause the engine to flare out and possibly explode. - If you choose the tumbler method, you can pack and core at the same time by drilling out a hole in a hardwood dowel that fits the core shaft, then just fill it with powder and tamp it down with the dowel. - If you don't want to use a long drill bit, you can cut the dowel into sections slightly shorter than the length of your longest bit, then drill out the center hole on a drill press (or by hand if you are steady), then put the dowels on the shaft and glue the sections back into one long piece. - You can plug the open end of the casing tube with a piece of wooden dowel and wood glue. Elmer's probond max wood glue is the best. Titebond is not bad either, but it's not as good as Elmer's. Tip: don't cut the plug, just glue a section of the dowel into the end of the tube and let it dry, then when you are done packing it you can use a saw to trim off the excess dowel. This way when you are packing it, you can clamp the dowel in a vise making it easy to work with.
I boil KNO3 with sugar, result is described by yours. But is there any difference in performance of fuel, between boiled with water and heated up without it?
@@M65V19 I never measured it so I can't say for sure, but I can say that each time I use the boil method I get consistent results and a smooth burn. I know some people say to use powdered sugar but I prefer not to because it has additives in it to keep it from clumping.
@@M65V19 AFAIK, in theory, dissolved mixed and evaporated mixture should be more homogeneous, that will give more uniform burning. Still this is my assumption, I've never tested it.

For all the young teens trying to figure out where to source the precursors, be very careful while making this. It is not stable as this video would have you believe. The process of heating is very dangerous and can reach flash point very easily. This will be a very sticky substance that will attach to your skin and continue burning. I sustained third degree burns over the top of my hand and fingers. When it was over I could slide all the skin off with my other hand. made awesome smoke for airsoft though.
I once did this in a container that I though was for cooking, and I also thought was made of aluminum... it was made of predominantly magnesium, and it melted on the side after the mixture began coagulation... I believe a small hole formed on the bottom because the mixture ignited in my face and gave the magnesium enough energy to ignite... fortunately for me I was outside, and I had placed the setup on top of a large concrete slab, well away from secondary ignition sources.
Won't do that shit like that again will you, 😂 me and a friend was 17 and made a black powder bomb a small one only 10 lbs. we didn't realize at the time how much power we were working with. Nothing went wrong but knowing what I know now if anything would've went wrong we would have had a real bad day real fast
Nice video showing all steps and end result. But scary watching you cook the fuel. Since you completed the video I assumed the fuel didn’t blow up but I was waiting to see that any second. Wow, talk about lucky. Making rocket fuel outside the home is a must. And wear some flame retardant gloves and clothing while your at it. Actually fire fighting brush gear is inexpensive PPE. Thirty+ years of pyrotechnics with several explosions and no injuries. Safety gear is your last line of protection so take precautions first.
you can also skip the heating step if you mix the powders properly and pack the fuel mix till its like a rock in your tube, use bentonite clay for your end caps. doing the pouring method has a higher chance for air bubbles to get trapped in the engine and that will lead to catastrophic failure of the engine (it will go boom from the uneven heating of air inside the tube)
Silly question, but I assume you mean to pound the powder until it becomes one hunk of rocket fuel... is there any risk to blow it up that way? IE: does the mixture set off when it is smashed with a hammer or does it only go off with heat/fire?
@@h.a.9880 It goes of with heat/fire so need to be careful not to cause too much compression somewhere (metal on metal) which can produce lots of heat, and don't cause too much friction. I've seen people doing it with hardwood pole just fine.
@@ThereWasNoFreeName Thanks, this sounds like I'd like to test it out myself one day. I knew that there's rocket hobbyists, but I never realized that one could make propellant themselves, quite interesting. Now I learn that it's reasonably safe to handle.
@@h.a.9880as long as you’re doing it outside. The one time you do it inside is the one time it needs to burn your house down. Never worth the risk. Always outside.
Fun fact: make as shown but put it in a container with match heads placed throughout. One pound of this mixture can cover a city block in thick white smoke. Another helpful tip from The Anarchists Cookbook.
In ~1994, I salvaged styrofoam from the packaging of my original NES (8-bit Nintendo) to make something from that book, when combined with the liquid that "makes cars go" . Needless to say, it was too thick and didn't ignite well. To this day, I have an "original NES Complete in the Box minus a large chunk of styrofoam for unknown reasons"
Hahaha. Sure is till have this on floopy disc in the loft. Originally the jolly Rodger cook book so you had the revised version like me 🫣. Was hard to undetand as a kid. And technology ones are basiclay obsolete. Its 100% American so most things didnt even make sence to a 1998 14 year old British kid haha

The date reporting the first use of true rockets was in 1232. At this time, the Chinese and the Mongols were at war with each other. During the battle of Kai-Keng, the Chinese repelled the Mongol invaders by a barrage of "arrows of flying fire." These fire-arrows were a simple form of a solid-propellant rocket.
Rather than folding over the end of the tube you can use bentonite clay to block it up. Kitty litter is usually pure bentonite clay. It just needs a good tamp down.
@@mohmih144 no, not cat droppings. The clay based product that is put in the bottom of the tray into which your cat would defecate in order to absorb any liquid and minimise odour.
@@danforbes4513dont pack both ends with clay, dummy. if you do, make sure the nozzle size is large enough so the pressure doesnt cause the engine to burst.
Well rockets grow exponentially because to get higher you need more fuel but then your rocket gets heavier and you need even more fuel to carry that fuel. Also there is a huge difference between getting into space and to orbit. Space starts at 100 km altitude but to stay there you need to reach 8km/s (18 000 mph).
So-called satellites are literally some kind of electronics enclosure suspended from large helium balloons. They are not launched by rockets; they are launched by filling up the balloon then letting it ascend.
Bardzo interesujące. dzieciństwie ( jako nastolatek) robiłem małe rakietki z zakrętek od wódki i tego materiału. kawałek drutu za statecznik i 50-80m górę leciało. Szkoda, że wtedy nie wiedziałem że temperatura może to masę plastyczną zamienić.
I use to use this recipe for smoke bombs way back in the day , I use to play Paintball professionally, even had a pull pin ignition switch like a grenade on them , they work very well , I use to use half round steel on the bottoms so they would sit upwards when I threw them once they landed , great for war games in the woods as long as the land around you is somewhat moist . Theses things put off a lot of smoke & you can even make them different colors if you know what your doing .
Great video, ive been making kno3 rockets for a few years now, i need to get my video editing skills up so i can create a video like this, very well done. A few tricks ive learned making the rockets over the years. Use powdered sugar, blend the sugar/kno3 in a blender. Add a splash of water to the powder before heating, blend that as well, then add mixture to heat source. Adding the water will make the heating time go up, but it will be more consistent and easier to pour, you will also get less air pockets making for a more straight and consistent flight. I definitely do not claim to know everything and im still learning tweaks and tricks to building rockets and making fuel. Id love to hear your or others tips in the comments as well!
I think adding like 2 drops of vanilla exract could help with the duraction flight, but im not sure and im not speaking from my expierience so try this at your own risk
I tried your way of just putting it in a pan and heating it up and it would not dissolve. After 35 minutes of continuously stirring I ended up with a big sticky ball! After it cooled down I took it outside I lit the whole ball on fire & it was freaking awesome! I noticed that the melted ball burnt much much quicker than the powdered form. So I tried again this time using a little bit of water so it would dissolve and be liquidy but the viscosity of it was still not liquidy enough to actually pour into a tube.
Seriously, why are people so surprised information like these are everywhere in the open? There were guides on how to made homemade IEDs and bombs with everyday tools and raw materials way before Hamas was formed.
Flash powder and visco fuse at the top. Drill into fuel where there is no core and put visco fuse in hole, as it burns slower where there's no core it acts as a delay and the fuse lights near the end of the rocket's peak altitude.
That thing flew better than some of the more elaborate offerings I have seen.I would love to build one but am a bit worried about setting fire to the landing zone.Maybe over the ocean.
@@billmoran3219 I can relate, I made several batches of fuel, no problems, then my father insisted on "helping". Filled the whole house with smoke - good that my mother was out at the time. LOL!
I was literally thinking about renting out a property until I watched this video. Holy fuck - nearly every step breaks every safety step in the book, from overspraying your silicone on food surfaces to cutting toward yourself to melting and pouring inside. The only thing missing was a gas range for the mix.
I made this back before the internet was around, after reading about it in the anarchists handbook (distributed via BBS’s back in the day). Unfortunately because there was no video back then, it meant there was no way to know if you were doing the right thing. I tested a really small bit like he did, and it instantly exploded with a cloud of smoke. I thought “cool, I’ve made a smoke bomb”. I had the rest of the mixture set into a plastic medicine bottle, and took it to school (because of course that’s what you do when you are a stupid teenager). After lightning a slow burning fuse I’d made, I moved a distance away, but a huge group of students gathered around to see what the strange burning fuse was. I freaked out that I was about to blow up a group of kids, and my screaming to get away had no effect. Luckily it just spat out a stream of smoke and red flame. Although there’s a heap of negativity to this video, it’s quite helpful for the next generation of anarchists.
When I was a kid I used this mixture to make a “smoke bomb”. It fell over, started flying, and landed on the back bumper of a stationary car. It melted parts of the car 😂
Some how i made this seem like a good idea to my parents when i was younger, got a few good smoke bombs out of it then one time i used a gas stove and the flames got into the pan, filled our house with smoke and burnt everything on the kitchen worktop, good times!
Ahhh . . Potassium nitrate, mom’s kitchen, finished beers (multiple brands), homemade, garbage music, a great launch and a brush fire (forgot the garbage music during the brush fire). Well done
Awesome video ! I would put a salute head on it for sure ! Do you also make whistle mix ( dangerous yes but insane !!) You need a press though for it ..The mixture itself is very dangerous to make but with causion and expertise it can be done 😅
It is very easy for the mix to ignite and spray all over the place. Big mess plus damage and or injury. Do this outside on a portable hotplate. Wear face shield gloves an welding jacket
Was hoping for an explosion of color or chute. Thanks for making this very informative video. After reading the comments I would try this outside. How high did it go?

Dude, we were all already on their watch-lists, probably since junior high. The more the better, since they can't watch everyone.
If the sugar and the KNO3 were dilluted in water first, then this water is evaporated, the mix is more homogeneous thus the burning is better, and for make it more malleable and easy to pour in the tube, a small amount of corn syrup helps. Obviously, with a nozzle the power will be higher and the pressure achieved in the chamber will be substantially high. Regards!
Absolutely. You can soak string in the mixture to make fuses once dried out, or newspaper to make the guts of a smoke bomb.
I normally add a little glycerin
Having done a lot of rocket candy in my teens I can say that getting the water out afterwards is really hard. The mixture is hygroscopic so it doesn't even dry out in a low temperature oven. You end up with a mixture that always has a bit of water left that eats up some of the power. I tried various polar and non polar solvents but never found anything better than water that dissolved both the sugar and the saltpeter
@@michaelandersen7535 a vacuum chamber would probably do it.
I think that even the Anarchist Cookbook recommends adding water
Haha been there, done that. Like 20 years ago, great memories :D
Some remarks:
1. Don't use sugar. It's for noobs. You see the brown color? That is caramelization, we don't want that. Use sorbitol or some other sugar for diabetics. It does not caramelize, burns much better, less smoke and most importantly: Safety. It is much less likely to go off when smelting, you can heat it more and as it does not caramelize it is less viscous, easier pouring.
2. Put in the rod for the bore before you pour your rocket fuel in. No work necessary at all ramming that rod through your almost solidified fuel.
3. Do it outside. Don't do it in the living room omfg :D We did it in the garage and outside and still fucked up enough of our clothes or some plants when washing our equipment and too much kno3 landed somehwere...
4. Wear at least minimum level of protective clothes, sandals are not good. I know as kids we were all experts after handling pyrotechniques for 3 weeks or more, but still it's worth it, especially if you show it in a tutorial on youtube.
5. Use some kind of nozzle. You will be surprised how much faster and higher your rocket goes. Especially if you are already a pro igniting with electricity. Then you can easily ignite without damaging your nozzle. Back in our days we made the nozzle from cement, nowadays you can buy so much awesome stuff on ebay, like oven glue, oven cement and what not, that we just did not have 20 years ago. You can make awesome nozzles with that.
The cheap cat litter when mixed with water to a clay then shaped makes good cheap nozzles. Fasten the nozzle securely or use water pipe and Pratleys putty 😂

I followed his instructions and never had one failure.
A very long long time ago we used to do this to make smoke bombs, we would shape it as it cooled and stick a couple match heads in them. Strike and toss. One evening in our tent we let the goop get too hot!! A rocket motor/smoke bomb going off in an exposed area made of canvas. Tent gone, sleeping bags gone. Explaining to parents what you were doing: Priceless!!
This music is hilarious. I love the one note at a time guitar solo that simply follows the chord changes. Most simple solo ever!
Yes when I was a bit younger, this formulae for 'caramel candy' rocket fuel was in the DIY Rocket manual from the Southwest Texas Rocketry Society handbook
Amazing
Can you tell me where to find those manuals
We made many caramel candy rockets, as well as smaller black powder ones, back in the '60s. lots of good advice here, especially concerning safety. We used a baby bottle warmer and did it outside. The quantity of fuel made here in the kitchen is frightening- if it caught, you'd probably burn the house down.
It was also cool to burn off the residue in the bottle warmer after a pour- quite an impressive flame shooting into the sky.
can i use a fuse instead of wire?
I desperately need to learn how to make them. Can you help me?
No you can't. It's not halal!
The best way to close off and end of a cardboard tube is to soak that end in warm water. When the cardboard becomes soft, “gently” fold it over to close the end. Once folded over lightly tap the folds on a flat surface. Then, stand the tube up and let the damp cardboard end dry completely.
Just Fill it with some clay
@@ifv2089I have a better idea
Why not make a cannon of it
Ofcourse we will use paper balls covering the aluminium core made out of the foil
This is hamas level entertainment lol
I love watching these sugar rockets, no matter how many times I watch.
Only change I'd make is that I'd put the mandrel in before pouring and just coat it in mold release.
As a kid back around 1970s, I did exactly what this dude is doing AND IT BLEW UP!! BE CAREFUL if you don't stir VERY carefully and any section gets too hot and it will all combust. GOTTA stir and go slow.
Yea, go to the dollar store and get a single burner. Then do it in the middle of the yard. I about caught the house on fire cooking it in the porch. Just a small pot and fire went to the ceiling, across the soffit, around the gutter and about 10' in the air.
I grabbed the pot and slung it in the yard . Scared the hell out of me.😂
As someone who had homemade rocket fuel blow up in their face, I can't agree more!

How's that?
Pointy nose cone and tail fins = twice as high. That’s freaking awesome!!
the nose needs to be pointy !
a pair of those on a core stage and you get SRBs
A nozzle might do something also
Putting a clay choke nozzle in the bottom would get you some significant height as well. That rocket had NO NOZZLE!
The shape of the missile top has nothing to do with aerodynamics.
Love the bottle rocket ending. That's do much more satisfying than an actual rocket body to me.
Also, that used to be a nice transit tripod.

then there's this
Never ever did I expect to see black label and ricoffy in a homemade rocket tutorial XD
Use powdered sugar instead of granulated sugar and no heat is required. Mix well. Insert a wooden (or metal) dowel in the middle of the tube. Tamp the mixture into the tube with a large wooden dowel with a hole drilled in the middle (for clearance with the center dowel). Pull out the center dowel. Put fins on the base of the rocket. Be sure to have a phone with 911 on your speed-dial and a friend on hand for when the rocket blows up in your face.
slightly fuel rich mix but for ease of pouring the mold i accept.
Great flight and with an encore of a grass fire! Now that’s a winner.
Cara!! Esse foi o melhor foguete que ja vi! ele continuou em alta velocidade até atingir o solo.
My recommendations:
- Add enough water to the nitrate/sugar mixture to cause the sugar to dissolve in the water, then heat it in a non-stick frying pan until the water is gone. This will ensure the best possible mixture of the two powders and reduce the possibility of it igniting while heating dry materials.
- When you boil off the water, the resulting mixture will be hot and stiff so it isn't as easy to pour. If you let it cool, it will become hard and brittle. If you let it cool and harden, you can use a rock tumbler, some 10mm ball bearings, and pieces of the fully dried mixture that you break up with a hammer inside of a ziploc bag. You can pulverize it into a fine powder using the tumbler and BBs. The powder then packs very nicely ensuring there are no voids that would cause the engine to flare out and possibly explode.
- If you choose the tumbler method, you can pack and core at the same time by drilling out a hole in a hardwood dowel that fits the core shaft, then just fill it with powder and tamp it down with the dowel.
- If you don't want to use a long drill bit, you can cut the dowel into sections slightly shorter than the length of your longest bit, then drill out the center hole on a drill press (or by hand if you are steady), then put the dowels on the shaft and glue the sections back into one long piece.
- You can plug the open end of the casing tube with a piece of wooden dowel and wood glue. Elmer's probond max wood glue is the best. Titebond is not bad either, but it's not as good as Elmer's. Tip: don't cut the plug, just glue a section of the dowel into the end of the tube and let it dry, then when you are done packing it you can use a saw to trim off the excess dowel. This way when you are packing it, you can clamp the dowel in a vise making it easy to work with.
I boil KNO3 with sugar, result is described by yours. But is there any difference in performance of fuel, between boiled with water and heated up without it?
@@M65V19 I never measured it so I can't say for sure, but I can say that each time I use the boil method I get consistent results and a smooth burn. I know some people say to use powdered sugar but I prefer not to because it has additives in it to keep it from clumping.
@@M65V19 AFAIK, in theory, dissolved mixed and evaporated mixture should be more homogeneous, that will give more uniform burning.
Still this is my assumption, I've never tested it.
Thank you. We get stronger every day from your great tutelage and My brothers appreciate the information humdoallah

I love the way the dude is making a rocket with an empty beer bottle in the background 😂😂😂
"Hold my beer and watch this," said the Darwin Award candidate.
For all the young teens trying to figure out where to source the precursors, be very careful while making this. It is not stable as this video would have you believe. The process of heating is very dangerous and can reach flash point very easily. This will be a very sticky substance that will attach to your skin and continue burning. I sustained third degree burns over the top of my hand and fingers. When it was over I could slide all the skin off with my other hand.
made awesome smoke for airsoft though.
Are you okay, brother?
You tube recommending me this on October 2023 is just perfect timming.
I once did this in a container that I though was for cooking, and I also thought was made of aluminum... it was made of predominantly magnesium, and it melted on the side after the mixture began coagulation... I believe a small hole formed on the bottom because the mixture ignited in my face and gave the magnesium enough energy to ignite... fortunately for me I was outside, and I had placed the setup on top of a large concrete slab, well away from secondary ignition sources.
Won't do that shit like that again will you, 😂 me and a friend was 17 and made a black powder bomb a small one only 10 lbs. we didn't realize at the time how much power we were working with. Nothing went wrong but knowing what I know now if anything would've went wrong we would have had a real bad day real fast
@@mattburns7380 10 lbs is a smal bomb?
I did everythink just like you exept doing it outside, shit ignited instantly after starting to cook it
@@erikasminiotas3384 if you did it the way described it wouldn't have ignited until you launched your rocket, ergo you didn't do it the way described.
Nice video showing all steps and end result. But scary watching you cook the fuel. Since you completed the video I assumed the fuel didn’t blow up but I was waiting to see that any second. Wow, talk about lucky. Making rocket fuel outside the home is a must. And wear some flame retardant gloves and clothing while your at it. Actually fire fighting brush gear is inexpensive PPE. Thirty+ years of pyrotechnics with several explosions and no injuries. Safety gear is your last line of protection so take precautions first.
Música muito agradável!!! 👍👍👍
Beer and rocket building,two of favorite things lol
you can also skip the heating step if you mix the powders properly and pack the fuel mix till its like a rock in your tube, use bentonite clay for your end caps. doing the pouring method has a higher chance for air bubbles to get trapped in the engine and that will lead to catastrophic failure of the engine (it will go boom from the uneven heating of air inside the tube)
Silly question, but I assume you mean to pound the powder until it becomes one hunk of rocket fuel... is there any risk to blow it up that way? IE: does the mixture set off when it is smashed with a hammer or does it only go off with heat/fire?
@@h.a.9880 It goes of with heat/fire so need to be careful not to cause too much compression somewhere (metal on metal) which can produce lots of heat, and don't cause too much friction. I've seen people doing it with hardwood pole just fine.
@@ThereWasNoFreeName Thanks, this sounds like I'd like to test it out myself one day.
I knew that there's rocket hobbyists, but I never realized that one could make propellant themselves, quite interesting.
Now I learn that it's reasonably safe to handle.
@@h.a.9880as long as you’re doing it outside. The one time you do it inside is the one time it needs to burn your house down. Never worth the risk. Always outside.

In ~1994, I salvaged styrofoam from the packaging of my original NES (8-bit Nintendo) to make something from that book, when combined with the liquid that "makes cars go" . Needless to say, it was too thick and didn't ignite well. To this day, I have an "original NES Complete in the Box minus a large chunk of styrofoam for unknown reasons"

The date reporting the first use of true rockets was in 1232. At this time, the Chinese and the Mongols were at war with each other. During the battle of Kai-Keng, the Chinese repelled the Mongol invaders by a barrage of "arrows of flying fire." These fire-arrows were a simple form of a solid-propellant rocket.
From the burnt grass, It appears it kept burning even after dropping to the ground. Fantastic
ofcourse it did, it doesn't have a nostle to keep the presure accelerating the burn time, after it burns out the core to the bottom

I am impressed with the altitude reached. It made me think about mini homemade satellites in I a orbit like a tablet with power pack and solar sails
how much is the cheapest rocket in the world which can deliver nano-satellites to low-orbit? I mean reeeeeeeaaalllly cheap? like 300$
Well rockets grow exponentially because to get higher you need more fuel but then your rocket gets heavier and you need even more fuel to carry that fuel.
Also there is a huge difference between getting into space and to orbit. Space starts at 100 km altitude but to stay there you need to reach 8km/s (18 000 mph).
So-called satellites are literally some kind of electronics enclosure suspended from large helium balloons. They are not launched by rockets; they are launched by filling up the balloon then letting it ascend.

What's the ingredients
Great video, ive been making kno3 rockets for a few years now, i need to get my video editing skills up so i can create a video like this, very well done. A few tricks ive learned making the rockets over the years.
Use powdered sugar, blend the sugar/kno3 in a blender. Add a splash of water to the powder before heating, blend that as well, then add mixture to heat source. Adding the water will make the heating time go up, but it will be more consistent and easier to pour, you will also get less air pockets making for a more straight and consistent flight.
I definitely do not claim to know everything and im still learning tweaks and tricks to building rockets and making fuel. Id love to hear your or others tips in the comments as well!
I think adding like 2 drops of vanilla exract could help with the duraction flight, but im not sure and im not speaking from my expierience so try this at your own risk
i did not expect the rocket to go that high. wow. great job
I tried your way of just putting it in a pan and heating it up and it would not dissolve. After 35 minutes of continuously stirring I ended up with a big sticky ball! After it cooled down I took it outside I lit the whole ball on fire & it was freaking awesome! I noticed that the melted ball burnt much much quicker than the powdered form. So I tried again this time using a little bit of water so it would dissolve and be liquidy but the viscosity of it was still not liquidy enough to actually pour into a tube.

Flash powder and visco fuse at the top. Drill into fuel where there is no core and put visco fuse in hole, as it burns slower where there's no core it acts as a delay and the fuse lights near the end of the rocket's peak altitude.
On the watch list. Great first the 3d print guidance rocket now this. I swear I'm genuinely curios, onto how to use a clay wheel.
So much fun. Wholesome video.

I made this back before the internet was around, after reading about it in the anarchists handbook (distributed via BBS’s back in the day).
Unfortunately because there was no video back then, it meant there was no way to know if you were doing the right thing.
I tested a really small bit like he did, and it instantly exploded with a cloud of smoke. I thought “cool, I’ve made a smoke bomb”.
I had the rest of the mixture set into a plastic medicine bottle, and took it to school (because of course that’s what you do when you are a stupid teenager).
After lightning a slow burning fuse I’d made, I moved a distance away, but a huge group of students gathered around to see what the strange burning fuse was. I freaked out that I was about to blow up a group of kids, and my screaming to get away had no effect. Luckily it just spat out a stream of smoke and red flame.
Although there’s a heap of negativity to this video, it’s quite helpful for the next generation of anarchists.
And thus began a long story of firing weapons in college ...
