Sophie and I worked on making our nozzle for our rocket today. Since we finished sanding down the general idea of a cylinder of the circumference of our rocket, we were able to saw it down to the shape we wanted. We did this with the help of Andrew. He helped us use a drill that was able to spin the nozzle around quickly while Sophie and I sanded down the sides. This helped us make even sides and a smoother nozzle. For the first half of the sanding, we had either Sophie or I use sandpaper to sand down the nozzle and the other person use a handheld vacuum to clean up all the sawdust. We ended up stopping this because the vacuum kept dying and was also slightly in the way for whoever was trying to sand. After we got the shape we wanted, Andrew had us go over and sand with two other types of sandpaper that were extremely fine so that our nozzle would be even smoother. Then we took a block of wood and sanded down a small portion of the nozzle more so it would fit nicely in the rocket. We ended up sanding down just slightly too much so we added a layer of masking tape, which worked perfectly. Also, we realized our nozzle is extremely light, which messes with the center of mass, so we had to add a screw into the middle to add a little more weight to it. This helped balance out our rocket better than it would've been. Even though the process of making a nozzle like this took a much longer time than it would have if we had just used a pvc pipe cap, it was definitely worth it. The balsa wood nozzle definitely helps make our rocket look more like a cartoon rocket, like we originally wanted. Overall, Sophie and I are extremely happy with how our rocket is turning out so far.
