DIY Paper Rocket Launcher Tutorial. This is a great project to do with your kids or with a youth group. The launcher uses compressed air to launch paper rockets farther than you would expect. Most paper rockets can withstand 20-40 psi, but if you make them robust you can crank sometimes withstand 60-100 psi. Ideal activity for kids 8 to 14 (and for parents too)!
