Hamas Rockets

For some time know Hamas has been using homemade rockets to piss off isreal. What I didn't know was that they are essentually large (like 6ft) sugar rockets. In light of that I did some searching into the technical details behind thier construction but couldn't find much.

This thread is for the posting of technical information on, and the general discussion of qassam rockets. Links to in depth analysis of the construction of these rockets. Also what is the maximum practical range that can be obtained with sugar rockets?

Thanks, I appreciate the feedback.

I'm particularly interested in schematics, having experience with CAD.

I read a while back a British citizen was arrested and charged with terrorism for having rocket schematics in his possession. Luckily, I use full hard drive encryption.
