My wife keeps looking at me funny when I say im going to convert the old grain silo into a rocket until i showed her this.......
Looks like my project is not too far fetched as she thinks.
Hmmm now i might have a use for all thise old bags of super..

[LewisM]

Mix the super with diesel, and the propellant is sorted too....

You might be thinking about Potassium Nitrate, saltpetre rather than superphosphate Lewis.

[LewisM]

Nope, check out superphosphate and diesel... https://www.google.com.au/search?q=superphosphate+and+diesel&rlz=1C1CHBF_en-GBAU723AU723&oq=super+phosphate+and+&aqs=chrome.3.69i57j0l5.7663j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

A truck in WA crashed years ago, carrying SP...mixed with the diesel from the ruptured tanks...WHOOOOMPAH, no truck, massive crater.

[TwistedRider]

That looked rather impressive.


Definitely a party event :thumbsup:

I think ill go all the way with caustic and aluminum in a tank producing htydrogen with a couple oxy tanks.
Then a turbo pumping kerosene mist into a giant carbon fibre cone.
Then light the sparklers........
Now i have to work out some sort of gyro platform to tell the hydrolics on the exhaust cone which way to gimble.,..
No wonder you need a big unlimited budget.
Should i notify the council on what im doing?
Nearly forgot. ...need a really big parachute and a crash helmet.
Hmmmm i might watch Mad Mike from the flat earth idiots get inside his V2 rocket first and see how its done.

Poor Hifumi, she just ran out of puff. Wish my Japanese Wife would when she arcs up... Alas, she doesn't lay off until I crash and burn :mad:
