This was my first rocket. It's pretty big for a rocket, but until I find smaller rocket tools I can't make anything else.
I was going to do a sky test, but I chickened out and pushed it really far into the ground to just test how much force it would have at take-off. 
I'm still not sure if this would have gone straight up. 

This made a lot of smoke and it looked awesome, and since the fuel is sugar and not black powder, it doesn't smell like sulfur.
