Chemical Suppliers

FireFox Enterprises - These guys have all of the chemicals and rocketry parts you will need to make your motors.


Metal Suppliers

Online Metals has a good selection of aluminum tubing and aluminum stock. Their prices are reasonable and they ship pretty quickly.

Metalmart also has good prices and ships quickly, but their web site sometimes makes it hard to order.


Misc. Hardware

McMaster-Carr has everything you'll need for the rest of the motor. Snap rings, silicone O-rings, graphite rod, etc. A little pricy, but they have it all.


Machine Tooling

Homier traveling tool shows have a 7x12 mini-lathe that I recommend. It is accurate enough for hobby work.

Sherline Tools has a complete line of lathes, mills and accessories. If you don't like the imports, these are American made.

Mini-lathe home page . Everything you need to know getting started with your new lathe. Excellent site!

Little Machine Shop . These guys have the tools and accessories you'll need to keep your machining tools going. Fast service.
