insert a 4 or so in. long piece of thread in the hole in the back of the ammo then put in your propellent of choice.Matcheads work fine especially if you crush them into a powder.

you lite the fuse...duh

first off i'd recommend you get fuel from a rocket engine and line the inside of the rocket with tinfoil.the string is to be lit and upon burning completely it will light the rocket fuel. the fuel will have a long burn allowing it to travel.

this whole experiment defetes the purpose of what makes these projects fun, there simplicity, unless you are in the market for a burnt hand and a look of anguish on your face i guess you leave this one alone. not to say that it is not good, it is a very impressive concept so do not get me wrong.

i would assume you set the fuse to flame, i suggest you use fuse as tread does not burn so well

erm... How do you fire it?
