There are a couple of ways to make match stick rockets first and properly the most popular get a match, tin foil and a needle. First lay the match stick (paper matches work well) on the table then lay the needle along it so the point is on the match end (This will form the exhaust) then wrap the tin foil around the match. If you use too much foil it will be too heavy but too little and the flame and gases blast out the top of the foil instead of down the exhaust .Make sure the foil is tightly wrapped but not covering the exhaust up.
Another way is to get a rectangle of tin foil and cut the heads off two matches put them at the end of the foil then lay a match with out the end on it along the same end. Then roll the foil up so it's a tube scrunch up the end with out the match stick sticking out the end then remove the match stick.
The hole created is the exhaust.
Firing the rocket
When ready take out to a open space construct a stand (I will show you how later in the guide) and heat the tip of the match causing end of the match to ignite. Gases rush out of the exhaust and your rocket should fly up to 30 feet I say up to remember.
The stand
A good way to make a stand is to pull up the in side of a paper clip and rest the rocket in the middle.
Thanks for reading and be safe!
