      Hot glue is surprisingly shock resistant because of its flexible nature. We commonly use it in traditional archery to glue field points onto arrow shafts and each arrow will take at least several dozen impacts without any maintenance before the glue fails.
      Failure can be prevented entirely by simply occasionally reheating the points with a lighter until the point wants to move freely and giving it a little twist back and forth. Just by doing this once every few shooting sessions the glue outlasts my arrow shafts. The only thing to be careful of is to not overheat and burn the glue. Frankly though, you would almost have to deliberately try to do that.

    There are different formulations of hot glue. That colorless translucent stuff is polypropylene based, and is one of the most common, especially consumer one. There are stiffer and higher performance hot glues you can get based on other polymers which give much better performance (stiffer, stronger, usually higher melting point requiring industrial glue guns) and might be something to try for a crazy project like this. They'll usually have an off yellow or orange-ish color depending on what material they are based on, but they can be stiffer and have way higher tensile strength, and are available in bulk for industrial applications.

    Hey Joey B! Appreciate you stressing the less fun safety side of rocketry, particularly pertaining to how ornery recovery electronics can be. I actually had a similar experience with an Altus Easymini. We had armed the altimeter to see if it would beep out continuity and detect the e-matches that were connected to it. It beeped out good continuity, and then instantly blew both charges. It didn't wait for an altitude or time lockout, it hadn't been moved, and there wasn't a significant amount of wind. The data that we pulled from the altimeter showed no reason for it to have detected a launch and blown the charges. Thankfully no one was hurt, but sometimes stuff just goes wrong. Got to talking and it sounds like our experience isn't isolated, so we've moved away from Altus.

    I would really like a video where you talk a bit about what design choices you are considering for the space going rocket and what you have to think about before building something like that. Are you designing and/or making your own rocket motor? Will it use liquid or solid propellant? How much of the craft will have to be reserved for fuel VS other stuff? What materials are you choosing between and what are the properties of those that are relevant? Is it a straight forward compressive strength to weight ratio or are there other considerations? Are you going to have to deal with heat management?

    Dude that was amazing. Can't wait to watch your future projects.

    A lot of fun! Thanks for putting this together and sharing it so well.

    Thanks for showing your mistakes _and_ an immediate post-mortem report!! That's the stuff real engineering is built out of, I love it so much, and I really really appreciate you showing all the nitty gritty! Going to keep rooting for your space shot, and good luck!

    this video actually inspired me to finish soldering a circuit board that has been laying in my garage for a week. it’s almost ready for testing

    That was the cool story of the wet ice and the wobbling rocket. Thanks for sharing and may your goals be far and the road to them fun ^^

    Dang, that Tormach is such an incredible machine! And your cinematography of said machine.... *chef's kiss*

    I hope you never have another incident that motivates a safety review segment but I really appreciate the chance to see you analyze and explain the problem in detail. Thanks for covering the good and the bad moments in engineering, both the technical and the human. I've been a subscriber and regular viewer for a while, and that segment prompted me to ring the channel bell.
    Also, I wonder if freezing some kind of saturated polyacrylate material (Orbeez, instant snow) might take the 'wet' out of 'wet ice;'? Though it probably isn't a problem you're going to face very often...
    Fly safe!

    That isogrid mould deserves a spot on your desk, as a reminder. More original music please.

    The safety lesson is highly appreciated and very clear. "Hiding failure" is a gigantic issue on youtube. Literally gets people killed in some cases.

    I admire so much your work, I’m not an engineer or rocket scientist but I’m an architect specialist in structures and acoustics, the isogrid was a great idea but due the glue behavior wasn’t enough so an alternative could be put a thin metallic mesh embedded on the main body section in order to augment the rigidity of the whole structure and make this behave as a single one (and of course could avoid the coolness process before launching)

    Oh this brings back memories from elementary school… we were trying to built a rocket with glue as the main propellant as it had a „flammable“ symbol on it. Lots of glue, paper and toilet paper rolls later we had a rocket that burned wonderfully, just did not lift off 😂 in retrospect there were so many things missing, but hey, we were 7 or 8 at that time
