Working Model Rocket
Originally designed for my son's 3rd grade model rockery after school class. It shot off perfectly and was recovered in good shape.
Requires:
Estes Model Rocket Engine A10-3T(fast) or A3-4T(right amount of thrust). Both provide the same amount of energy but the A3 burns slower, A10 burns faster.

Make Sure you look for "A10-3T" or "or A3-4T"

Shock cord
option1: rubber bands to not have the same durability as the fabric covered cords

option2: I received feedback that Kevlar braid is also a good option, very strong and lightweight. The joints where the cord is glued in place will be able to handle the shock of the reduced elasticity.https://amzn.to/31ocGEA
screamer cut to 1in by 16in. The link below provides enough streamer for 246 rockets

This filament is very good for me. Full roll prints without extruder jams
Procedure:
Print the parts - cut off the round pads at the end of the fins
Cut shock cord to 8 in
Glue shock cord to rocket (detail provided in the pictures)
Glue shock cord to nose cone (detail provided in the pictures)
Tie the streamer to the center of the shock cord
Pack wadding into the lower part of the of the rocket tube from the top of the rocket tube, it should be push far enough down to to have room for the streamer and shock cord
Roll the streamer and pack into the top of the rocket tube and pack the rest of the shock cord in.
Push the nose cone on top of the rocket, it should be snug but pull off with a genital tug
Put engine inside
Follow the lunch instructions provided with the engines
Please provide comments on the build process and how the design call be improved. I will provide updates based on feedback
