You should never have to justify ‘why’ you might want to build a rocket, because building rockets is inherently awesome and anybody who questions that is a jackass.
Here we receive a tutorial on how to make a rocket capable of flying 2,000-feet vertically using kitty litter, potassium nitrate, and powdered sugar as the materials, PVC tubing, and an oak dowel…oh, and did I mention that it only costs fifty cents to make?

But because I know digesting information is much easier in GIF than by watching a 6-minute video, here’s the GIF breakdown:
Materials:
The Potassium Nitrate:
Get the cheapest kitty litter possible and blend, then pack it tight by smacking it with a mallet:
Repeat above until the plug is 3/4″ thick. Then cap it with a kitty litter end cap using the same process as above.
Drill your hole (preferably by hand so you don’t set anything off by accident):
Go somewhere secluded and enjoy your badass (and cheap) homemade rocket:
And voila! Now you’re a rocket scientist. Thank me later.
