Drinkable Coca Cola Bottle Rocket

What could we possibly do with two Coca Cola bottles? Well, we can drink Coke out of them (by far my favorite thing to do with Coca Cola bottles). Also we can make a rocket! (And still drink out of them while being in rocket -form, of course.

Yes, that's right - a rocket that can fly AND still function as a bottle to drink out of!

Note - this isn't a beginners project! I reccomend you either have experience in model rocketry, or have some mechanical ability. I will be using some funny model rocketry terms (wadding! that's a funny word) If you don't want the rocket to actually fly, this is a great project for anyone.

Lets get started!

Step 1 Step 1: Drink Coca Cola

To start, you need Coca Cola bottles! Preferably the small half-liter size. You can go cute with the tiny pint sized bottles, too. I would not recommend the 2 liter bottles if you want your rocket to fly - it's about aerodynamics and the size of the engine. 2 liter (big diameter) + engine (small diameter) = rocket out of control.

While you're at it, peel off the label of one of the bottles.
