To make nose cone, we found a cylinder piece of basil wood and we carved one side of it into a point and left the other side round. After we carved it we sanded it so that it would be smoother and look better. After carving and sanding we put it in the body of our rocket to see if it'd fit. Unfortunately it was too small so we had to wrap tape around the round part so that it could fit. Lastly we tied a rubber band, that we are using as our shock cord, to the bottom of our nose cone and the other side to the inside of the body.
For our parachute we drew a perfect circle, using a tack, string, and a marker. We tied one end of the string to the tack and the other to the marker, Then placed the tack in the middle and moved the string around to draw the circle. Then we put duct tape on four ends of the bag, we then hole punched the duct taped parts. After that we tied fishing wire through the holes and tied them all together. Lastly, we glued the string to the inside of the body.
For our motor mount we took the metal piece from a file folder and cut slits in our rocket to put the mount.
