A handmade toy can be great fun for you and your children, as well as a good way to spend time, because the process of making a homemade toy - for example, a toy rocket - is fun and exciting. A toy rocket will delight any child and any adult, and it can be made in several different ways. In this article, you will learn how to make such a rocket with your own hands.
Instructions
Step 1
The easiest way is to glue the rocket from a sheet of thick paper and paint it with paints and felt-tip pens.
Take thick paper or thin cardboard, and glue a tube from it with PVA glue, one and a half centimeters in diameter. This tube is needed for the launcher. Cover one end of the tube with tape to increase the life of the launcher.
Step 2
Then glue another tube of paper, making its diameter a millimeter larger than the diameter of the previous tube, and paint it with paints of your choice. Separately glue the paper cone from a semicircle and glue it to the top of the rocket tube. The cone must seal the outside of the tube.
Step 3
Cut out the stabilizers from paper and glue them on the tail of the rocket, then put the rocket with the free end on the launcher and blow into the end of the launch tube covered with tape. If done correctly, the rocket will fly.
Step 4
To give the rocket a more powerful impulse and give it a higher trajectory, you can complicate the design of the launcher. To do this, use an ordinary pump as an installation, supplying air to the tube after pressing the pedal.
Step 5
If you want to further complicate the process of launching a rocket, make a remote launcher. To do this, use a hose that goes directly to the rocket set at the correct angle for launch, a ball faucet, a blood pressure monitor, a balloon, a plastic tube, a plywood box, boards and threads.
Step 6
Drill two holes in the box. Insert a plastic tube into one hole, and a sleeve from a piece of a fountain pen into the other. From the inside of the box, attach the balloon to the end of the tube using threads. Attach the tubing, ball valve, and nipple together to make a hose adapter.
Step 7
Air is forced into the balloon, after which the valve is turned and the air flow is directed towards the rocket, giving it launching force.
