Some Pictures







Here are the pictures that I promised. The first picture is a spliced pair I was talking about. Notice the black coordinating lines and the brown glue. This illustrates how spliced pairs are basically just 2 Two - Liter bottles with their bottoms cut off, curled, and spliced. The second picture is of two spliced pairs joined together with what is called a tornado coupling. A tornado coupling lets air and/or water move through the spliced pairs. The third picture is a close-up of the aforesaid mentioned tornado coupling. The fourth picture is of our lovely launcher with a clark release mechanism. Cable ties lock on the the neck of a bottle, and a PVC coupler hold it there (I'll explain this in a seperate post). Finally, the fifth picture is to give you all an idea of how many bottles we need PER WEEK. Yep, that's right. A lot of bottles will be needed, so we'll need to work hard! That's it for now, but stay tuned for more pics!
