If you are good in chemistry, You will be able to do it by yourself by making a big firework.

ben_seg,
i'm quite good in chemistry.but you know i'll need the design of the rocket's body especially the aerodynamics that would be of best advantage to guarantee:speed and distance, as well as some reasonable accuracy.
whats more,i don't wan't to blow my hands off.i.e,the proportion's of the propellants must be right,the quantity must also be right to ensure safety.this is all i require to know.

Buy some bottle rockets, duck tape them together and put gasloine on the fuses. the blast from the chamber will ignite the fuses.
