Where can I get a rubber-bung that can enable me to fullfill this experiment? http://www.thenakedscientists.com/HTML/content/kitchenscience/exp/water-rockets/
As soon as possible, and how much will it cost?
Thanks

From that page
"If you can't get a rubber bung you can make one out of a wine bottle cork"

I suppose you could always whittle something out of a bit of wood and use chewing gum to help seal it. Or, if you carve some grooves round it, you could fill them with rubber bands to form sort of O-ring seals.
BTW BC,
Can you bung me a few quid till Friday?

bottle rocket kit, (http://www.rokit.com/uk/the-product/)
more expensive than a bung/cork but does come with a tube which lowers the odds of you getting hit or soaked,
and will launch from a flat surface (no launch stand required).

Where do you live? If home brewing is legal where you are, home brew shops usually carry a variety of bungs. They tend to cost in the range of 1-3 USD.

Try www.mutr.co.uk
MUTR products are usually very competitively priced, but not their bottle launcher stand (£25) (http://www.mutr.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=1009750).

Then TTS is a better site.
