Project Inspired By: My good friend Ritchie Kinmont from www.sonicdad.com, and a design collaboration we did together for the Randomizer Rocket project (http://bit.ly/IBRandomizerBlastPad)

WARNING:

This video is only for entertainment purposes. If you rely on the information portrayed in this video, you assume the responsibility for the results. PVC glue contains strong chemicals that can ruin your work surface within seconds. Use protective gear for your hands and work table to minimize risk. Have fun, but always think ahead, and remember that every project you try is at YOUR OWN RISK.

Project History & More Info:

I’m really excited to share my passion for building and launching rockets with completely home-made equipment. In my opinion, it’s the best way to learn about how rocketry really works.

This project was inspired by my good friend “Ritchie”.

We collaborated on a design for the “Randomizer Rocket”, which you should have seen making a cameo in this video, if you were paying attention.

When it was time to go film the launches we knew we had to make a custom launch pad. We needed something that would swivel 360º, and support the launch of the Randomizer.

I didn’t have much time to put into the creative efforts for designing a launch pad, but once again, Ritchie went home that same day and whipped up a design that I really liked, which you can see here: (http://bit.ly/IBRandomizerBlastPad)

His design uses 1/2″ PVC, and originally used a paint can lid for the blast pad, which we quickly discovered didn’t hold up very well to repeated blasts of rocket fuel.

I still really liked the idea of using a pot lid from a thrift store as a blast pad, like I showed in the “Redneck Rocketry” video: (http://bit.ly/RedneckRocketry), so I kept that, and upgraded the launch frame to 3/4″ PVC as well.

I slightly modified the paint job, but all-in -all this idea was heavily founded on Ritchie’s idea, so big shout-out to him for giving approval to make my own version, and my own project video.

You can see the launch-pad angles to any position you could ever hope for, and is sturdy and durable enough to take a beating from multiple launches, with hardly any sign of wear.

I’m really excited to have the Randomizer Blast-Pad join me as an important addition to this series on home-built rocketry.

Depending on whether you already have PVC glue and spray paint, you can probably get away with making the launch pad for around $10.

By the way, I keep the launch-pad behind my workstation, so every now and then you might catch a glimpse of it in the background of random project videos.
