RSSWeekend Project Birthday - Make a Jam Jar Jet! - Make: Video Podcast
This year of making videos has been awesome! Making something and then making a video about how to make it every week has been an incessant and intense year! Let's celebrate by making a jam jar jet!
This pulse jet works by igniting a flame, which pushes the gas out of the jar and then bit of a vacuum that it leaves sucks the air back in and the circle is repeated. Watch the video and download the pdf to learn how to make it!
I haven't done this alone, the guests on the show have brought their expertise to it. Thanks to everyone who's been a part of this show! Also, thanks to you for watching and commenting!
Weekend Projects is sponsored by Microchip Technology. Check out their seminars and the Microchip Masters Conference.

I made one of these a couple of months ago. You can see it here.
I also got some video of it in action here. I didn't get any shots at night, so there's no fancy colors - just neat sounds.

I remember making one of these inadvertently when I was 11 years old. I took an old style conical shaped Old Spice bottle that my dad just discarded and put a match up to the opening. The fumes caught immediately and I roasted my thumb. It was AWESOME!
