- Instead of launching fireworks this 4th of July, I'll be launching some water bottle rockets!!!
This was a project I worked on in high school, but fell upon a much better way to construct the launcher.
Tools used for this project:
All of these tools can be found at a local home center and are potentially less expensive there.
1/2" PVC Pipe (~8 ft): amzn.to/2Rj5sl1
1/2" PVC T's (x3): amzn.to/2ReC53l
1/2" PVC Cap (x4): amzn.to/2ACE2MF
1 1/4" Coupling (x1): amzn.to/2SJg6hQ
3/4" Hose Clamp (x1): amzn.to/2CWxABU

I want to thank VQC for a superb design! It works perfectly, no leaks. We had lots of fun with just 7 to 10 pumps. It rocks the sky!! Fun family time! Lots of giggles and axtion! Try it today! Materials are not expensive. 👍👍👍
anyone else here from a school project?
Umm kinda flunked this rocket 😢
More like university project…
lol
Me!😅
Me!😅
Would love to buld this for my grand daugther...any pdf files I can get for accurate information?
How long are the PVC tubes?
To tell the truth it was fantastic, I would like to know if it has any measure, specifies the platform or is it how one wants to do it
We are doing bottle rockets at school and I had so much fun I want to build my own launcher so I can keep doing this
In order to stop losing water when you put the rocket on, you could just flip the launch pad and then put the rocket on, then flip it back so water will not leak . That’s what I did.
There's a thing called a check valve...

Such fun!
Always dry fit the PVC pipe before applying glue, use a magic marker, make a mark on each piece where it lines up. I have assembled lots of PVC and this little trick lines up everything flush, no leg or other pipe not lying flat, nothing out of line. This glue can set very quick, before you can get it lined up correctly, trust me that ain't good.
What is the size of the cut PVC pipes? It's not in the description
I've just watched a few of these and that's got to be one of the best engineered launcher hacks I've seen. Thanks! How durable is it?

One thing when you put the rocket on the pipe won’t the water go inside the pipe please explain ?
Please mention the length you r cutting
Great work.
What are the measurements of PVC pipes? Can anybody help me?
After applying the PVC solvent, is the launching pipe is able to move in any ANGLE or it gets permanently joint to the vertical angle.
Permanent... it's all glued else BOOM
Great video with the exception of one thing , the horrible Alvin and the chip monks sounding horrible music .
This was super pro.
Thank you :> ♡♡
This is a fantastic launcher but is there another option besides using a cut 2-liter soda bottle for the "springboard"? In the past, the string has cut through the springboard making it useless. I have been trying to think of an alternative - ideas?
i used a spring from a sprinkler head. works great, the only issue now is that the paracord ,that use to pull the spring down is somewhat use less so i do have to manually pull the lock down
i also used a cap from Califia Farm milk on the lock to keep the spring from passing through the lock. Drilled a hole to pass the pvc though and it's perfect. I have to think about how to get enough force to pull the spring down without having manually pull on it. I get pretty soaked every time.
What are the pvc lengths? And what is the black thing on the end of the pvc called?
Hi Abbie! In the video description there is a link to a video that has a more detailed list of the materials used as well as the lengths of the PVC pipe. A tire valve is what's used to pump air into the bottle (through the PVC stand). I was able to find that at an auto part store. I think I went to AutoZone for that, but any auto store should have it.
Voth Quality Creative I didn’t see the link to the video with lengths.
@@vothqualitycreative there's no video
Pls provide us with the exact measurements... There is no link in the description. Please give reply
need proper dimension ?
Do you have digital blueprints for this?
"Waw" Its a most 5 star video.
what are the material ?
amazing
How much is you the whater that put in the rocket?
Lenght of first cut pipe
Very cool
How much water did you put?
What is the dimensions of PVC pipes.
Very cool !!!!
What PSI did you launch at?
The dial on the pump I was using was definitely inaccurate. I would say it was between 40-60 psi. I tried to max it out without losing too much water before releasing the rocket.
Hi! I was hoping to make this for my aviation/space class this week, do you have the specific measurements for the PVC pipe? I know you mentioned that you linked a video that gave the specific measurements, but I wasn't able to find it. Thanks for the great video!
This video is pretty good. There are 3 separate videos to follow.

materials used?
you made a good model any way....thanks for the information. We made a water rocket with a bottle which have the correct aerodynamic structure. And won first runner up in national level competition held at NIT Catlicut.
Que botella era?
AMAZING
Excuse me, what are the measures of the cortes.respondame rapido please
Awesome
No creo que me respondan pero aquí va, alguien me podría decir que fue lo que uso para hacer el sistema de frenado? Esa cosa para que no se le salga ni el agua ni el aire
Yo estoy implementando teflón , después te diré si me funcionó
Very good
It's very cool
Amazing
what is the material in the middle of the zip ties??
I thinks thats a metal hose ring
What's the measurements for the cuts?
For my rocket I used a 5ft pvc pipe that I cut into 4 peices the main pipe is 2 ft the ones to the side off of the t are 1 ft each and then at the other end of the main pipe I have an elbow joint connected to a 5 inch pipe.
My design is different then his so I don’t know exactly what this guy in the video did but mine seems to work fine
Sir,plz tell me all equipments name.
can only zip tiles can hold the bottle please tell I don't have things
You can fashion and rig a "U" Clip made of clothes hanger wire. You still need the 1-1/2 PVC Coupler to stick the bottle neck into.. research others u Tubes.. you'll find the U Clip method too.
Your machine is perfect, but Please tell me how You make the bottle😊😊😊
X2
very good
Amazing!!! i got one question: height reached? :D
Instead of a valve, what can I use?
nice
thanks sir Ji
Nice! 5:20
Great looking design! The music however made me want to drive off a bridge… I resisted the urge.
how long should we cut the pvc pieces?
It does not matter
thanks bro you are help me very so
Hi.
Will a bicycle tube valve work fine?
I'm not sure if a bicycle tube will work or not. I'm sure if the connection is air tight and the hole drilled into the PVC cap is the same diameter as the valve your planning to use it should work. I used a valve I found at AutoZone.
Yo estoy usando válvula de bicicleta y está cumpliendo su función
Super
please tell me abuot the measurement of pipe
Hi, Araj Dhaka! In the video description there is a link that goes through all of the measurements as well as materials. I'll post it here as well.. th-cam.com/video/FV2nrifqzX0/w-d-xo.html
me and my friends made this in bazooka version
Good video but it could be improved considerably by not having the 'music'.
Wow
n҉i҉c҉e
GOOD
wt's the blue colour gum
It is Oatey PVC Primer.
Can you tell me sir how much metre it will go up
+JIVESH RAJPUT I don’t know the exact height the rocket will achieve. The rocket in this video made it between 21 and 30 meters. (70 to 100 feet)
@@vothqualitycreative thanks sir
good
Good
can you do it without water inside
+Jason Poling absolutely! I’m not sure how high the rocket will go or what the direction will be though.
Hi I was wondering if I can make this for my science fair
Go for it! Thanks for watching!
@@vothqualitycreative thank you
The dimensions are 2 feet and 1 feet
sure???
Explain!!
OMFG THATS WHAT I DO
Ummmmm measurements of the pvc cut plsssssss.
We made a water rocket with a bottle which have the correct aerodynamic structure. And won first runner up in national level competition held at NIT Catlicut.launcher also

finally 666 people is here is the demon number
also im ib 2030 because i time travel
Me gusta
Yes
Oye una pregunta que medidas le diste a los tubos de pvc
yo tambien quiero las medidas amigo
4 G el mejor grupo
Height please
e muito tope altura que voa o voguete
SONG?
garbage
I think is very hand but i will try to do
Its hand all right.
The music is horrible
I was wondering when someone was going to say something! While editing I didn't see anything wrong with it, but I showed the video to a couple people and they said the same thing!
You know i like it
Lakhan nice make I will make
great video but music is annoying as balls
It really takes away from the quality of video, in my opinion.
Alguien me puede decir el nombre de la música de fondo por favor?
Por favor tengo q hacer este proyecto para el martes ayudenme
Makes no sense at all. What holds the bottle in place while pressure is put to it?
The zip-ties

Like si lo vistes sin volumen por la música xd
Cierto fastidio.. Parecia que se estaban tirando a la japonesa esa..
Just so everyone knows, don't use primer it will only make your pipe soft, it's code for like 2 inch main line repairs, no need on something like this
Man + Soft Pipe = 🎁
Won't the water from the bottle spill out??
Haziq Mirza some water spills out when transferring the bottle onto the launcher. Once the bottle is on, the seal is air tight almost perfectly. The pipe extends passed the water level inside the bottle ensuring no excess water goes into the launcher as well. Over time and from the air pressure the plastic bottle may expand and compromise the seal.
@@vothqualitycreative
I do not know which part you made the seal. Is it where you heat and compress the pipe ???
atleast tell us what the measurements are 🤦🏽♂️
I can't understand 😢
