WRLS (Water Rocket Launch System)

cults3d

This is a water rocket launcher, which can be fully 3D printed using using the 19x2mm TPU seal and the Inlet_Metric, or use store bought O-rings. Here's some footage of it in action:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3ogZNF4Pyw O-ring sizes: Inlet_Metric O-ring 19mm (inner diameter) 2mm cross section Inlet_Imperial O-Ring 3/4" (inner diameter) 1/16" cross section To adjust the release tightness, you can scale the printable O-ring or the pin, as pictured in the gallery. There's two options for fixing the launcher in place: Mount_Heavy_Duty is fixed directly to something solid (wood etc.) Mount and Leg_Peg for removable use, to ground or sand. Assembly instructions below. All parts should be printed with 100% infill and with 0.2 layer height for optimal clearance between parts. 1 Print all parts and get the hardware if you decide to use the actual valves and O-Rings 2 Insert the O-Ring to the Inlet 3 Glue the Bottle Adapter to an empty bottle, or print a rocket 4 Attach a cord to the Pin and connect the pump to the Inlet 5 Fill the rocket with water, and combine it with the Inlet and insert the Pin over them 6 Insert the assembly to the Mount, which should be secured in place 7 Pump to desired pressure 8 Launch by pulling the Pin 9 Houston we have lift off! 13 Houston, we have a problem Remember, this uses high pressures, so adult supervision and common sense is a must. The maximum pressure tested so far has been 10 bar (145psi) with the PVC Rocket More rocketry coming soon, so stick around!
