I love it when backyard enthusiasts create stuff from scratch. What an achievement, even if it is of no practical use!

Someday I want to try my hand at making a home-made vertical rocket, just to see how high I can blast something :P

dont' get me wrong, it's a cool rocket engine and all but maybe this guy has aspgergers or something - coz the VIDEO was so incredibly boring and uneducational.

it needs an easily excited special effects technician with glasses and a goatee to be jumping around "woohoo"ing. Or at least someone pointing out what is going on, otherwise it's just a complicated looking noise making machine. 8)

perhaps the target audience was people who are very familure with teh subject matter, coz i found it inaccessable.
