To celebrate Weekend Projects' one year birthday, I ate a cupcake and made a jam jar jet!

Inspired by Bill Gurstelle's awesome instructions in Make: Volume 5, this thing is a real pulse jet inside a jam jar!

  • Re: Awesome!

    First I love making stuff like this on rainy days or cold winter days up here in Maine. Thats why I had to buy a house with two garages and a workshop down celler! I'm going to do this project next time I get a chance. Great Job!!!

  • OR.... You can go ...

    OR....

    You can go REALLY out there and figure out some sort of fuel delivery system with a reserve tank, pressurized delivery system and a fuel aerator to maintain thrust. A little fuel cell with perhaps a mini-fish tank aerator pump and some fuel safe plastic tubing pierced with holes surrounding the diffuser inside the housing. Maintain fuel flow and this thing could actually propel... something.

    I need tools....and some coffee.... this can work...
