University of Colorado: Spring 2016

Created a novel product from scratch: a rocket with a De Laval nozzle, powered by CO2 cartridges. The first iteration was designed for additive manufacturing and then launched to prove feasibility. The second design was to improve the assembly metrics. Lastly, the final “MKIII” rocket was created for injection molding and low cost manufacturability.
