Nice looking launcher. What are you using for the launch rods?

Thanks, using 12mm diameter aluminium tubes, picked up at the local hardware store.
The launcher is inspired by a tutorial from George Katz at Air Command (

Hi Graham,
I am in Mulgrave, out east before dandy.
I have been doing water rocketry for over 10 years.
I do rocketry with the cub scouts as I am a leader and also personally.
You can see one of the quad launchers I built for cubs as my pic.
