Learn the method behind making a soft-drink can mortar.
This manual contains the construction and usage instructions for a very short mortar constructed for the express purpose of skyrocketing soft drink cans straight up into the air.
Information covers: construction materials, construction procedures, launch materials/procedures, theory of operation, load and safety notes.
It is crude, prone to rupture during use, and consumes rather inordinate amounts of Pyrodex.
But it sure is fun, and it makes an incredible amount of noise when it goes off!
