Plaster of Paris nozzle, bulkhead was paper wadding. Casing was cardboard from a matchbox sleeve taped around drift. Same propellant and fuse as all 'Small Experimental Greenmix Rocket', KNO3 75 parts, C 15 parts, S 10 parts, each finely ground and then mixed well.
Stabilizer was kebab stick.
This rocket did not develop much thrust. The exact cause is a mystery, but a combustion leak definately occured during the motor burn.
