I made a PVC pneumatic rocket launcher about 10 years ago for my son. You make rockets out of construction paper and masking tape.

A bicycle pump is used to put compressed air into the chamber. We usually use between 40 and 75 psi.

Make Magazine's rocket uses a template.

We just wrap a piece of construction paper around a one inch PVC pipe, seal the seam with masking tape, pinch the top shut and tape it with masking tape and folded tape for fins.
