that was about $10 so not too bad next

that was about $10 so not too bad next you want to pick up a laser and this

you want to pick up a laser and this

you want to pick up a laser and this one’s green the one I’m using for this

one’s green the one I’m using for this

one’s green the one I’m using for this project is blue they also come in red

project is blue they also come in red

project is blue they also come in red and this was about eight dollars on eBay

and this was about eight dollars on eBay

and this was about eight dollars on eBay as well and we’re gonna be modifying

as well and we’re gonna be modifying

as well and we’re gonna be modifying that so instead of using triple-a

that so instead of using triple-a

that so instead of using triple-a batteries we’re going to simplify it to

batteries we’re going to simplify it to

batteries we’re going to simplify it to use these button cell batteries which

use these button cell batteries which

use these button cell batteries which gives it a more compact look and I think

gives it a more compact look and I think

gives it a more compact look and I think just works a little bit better also

just works a little bit better also

just works a little bit better also you’ll need some 19 30 second brass

you’ll need some 19 30 second brass

you’ll need some 19 30 second brass grommets and earrings also some

grommets and earrings also some

grommets and earrings also some miscellaneous tools so first you want to

miscellaneous tools so first you want to

miscellaneous tools so first you want to start by modifying your laser you don’t

start by modifying your laser you don’t

start by modifying your laser you don’t have to do this part if you don’t think

have to do this part if you don’t think

have to do this part if you don’t think you can but look here the battery pack

you can but look here the battery pack

you can but look here the battery pack basically it’s gonna be poking you in

basically it’s gonna be poking you in

basically it’s gonna be poking you in the eye so that’s why I cut it down and

the eye so that’s why I cut it down and

the eye so that’s why I cut it down and it’s probably the world’s first laser of

it’s probably the world’s first laser of

it’s probably the world’s first laser of this size that’s blue because all the

this size that’s blue because all the

this size that’s blue because all the other ones that I’ve seen this was a red

other ones that I’ve seen this was a red

other ones that I’ve seen this was a red laser I haven’t seen a blue laser that

laser I haven’t seen a blue laser that

laser I haven’t seen a blue laser that runs off of these here so correct me if

runs off of these here so correct me if

runs off of these here so correct me if I’m wrong and so first you want to take

I’m wrong and so first you want to take

I’m wrong and so first you want to take apart your laser

here’s your clunky triple-a batteries

here’s your clunky triple-a batteries you want to take a blunt rod or whatever

you want to take a blunt rod or whatever

you want to take a blunt rod or whatever you can find

you can find

you can find and basically you want to tap out this

and basically you want to tap out this

and basically you want to tap out this area right here

area right here

area right here like that just put the rod into the

like that just put the rod into the

like that just put the rod into the barrel and then just sort of tap it

barrel and then just sort of tap it

barrel and then just sort of tap it lightly and eventually this guy is gonna

lightly and eventually this guy is gonna

lightly and eventually this guy is gonna fall out so that’s going to act as the

fall out so that’s going to act as the

fall out so that’s going to act as the end of your little addition so I got

end of your little addition so I got

end of your little addition so I got some earrings right here some grommets

some earrings right here some grommets

some earrings right here some grommets so I have an o-ring here another one

so I have an o-ring here another one

so I have an o-ring here another one going all the way around and the grommet

going all the way around and the grommet

going all the way around and the grommet and over in combination is nice and this

and over in combination is nice and this

and over in combination is nice and this is good because it allows you to adjust

is good because it allows you to adjust

is good because it allows you to adjust easily exactly where the laser is

easily exactly where the laser is

easily exactly where the laser is pointing so if it’s a little to the left

pointing so if it’s a little to the left

pointing so if it’s a little to the left all you have to do is just sort of

all you have to do is just sort of

all you have to do is just sort of adjust it and these o-rings sort of act

adjust it and these o-rings sort of act

adjust it and these o-rings sort of act as a rail system to keep it perfectly

as a rail system to keep it perfectly

as a rail system to keep it perfectly focused and then this is just another

focused and then this is just another

focused and then this is just another one to keep everything together you’ll

one to keep everything together you’ll

one to keep everything together you’ll need another two o-rings here and that’s

need another two o-rings here and that’s

need another two o-rings here and that’s sort of how that’s set up so next you

sort of how that’s set up so next you

sort of how that’s set up so next you want to take your nineteen thirty

want to take your nineteen thirty

want to take your nineteen thirty Seconds brass and using one of these

Seconds brass and using one of these

Seconds brass and using one of these guys you want to cut off a half-inch

guys you want to cut off a half-inch

guys you want to cut off a half-inch section that will look like this so next

section that will look like this so next

section that will look like this so next you’re gonna take the part that you

you’re gonna take the part that you

you’re gonna take the part that you tapped out of your battery housing and

tapped out of your battery housing and

tapped out of your battery housing and you’re gonna want to hot glue or

you’re gonna want to hot glue or

you’re gonna want to hot glue or superglue that in place you can see how

superglue that in place you can see how

superglue that in place you can see how it fits over top you’re gonna want to

it fits over top you’re gonna want to

it fits over top you’re gonna want to put that through but first you want to

put that through but first you want to

put that through but first you want to get a spring and any spring will work

get a spring and any spring will work

get a spring and any spring will work this size would work and all you have to

this size would work and all you have to

this size would work and all you have to do is take about a half inch section and

do is take about a half inch section and

do is take about a half inch section and take some electrical tape and wrap it

take some electrical tape and wrap it

take some electrical tape and wrap it around that area just to bulk it up a

around that area just to bulk it up a

around that area just to bulk it up a little bit and then you’re gonna want to

little bit and then you’re gonna want to

little bit and then you’re gonna want to jam that down into the part of the

jam that down into the part of the

jam that down into the part of the barrel that you removed so it kind of

barrel that you removed so it kind of

barrel that you removed so it kind of looks like a cup if you’d imagine this

looks like a cup if you’d imagine this

looks like a cup if you’d imagine this part being this you want to take your

part being this you want to take your

part being this you want to take your spring and sort of put it down the

spring and sort of put it down the

spring and sort of put it down the barrel and then use the tape to sort of

barrel and then use the tape to sort of

barrel and then use the tape to sort of secure it there so next you want to take

secure it there so next you want to take

secure it there so next you want to take your brass that you’ve taped this end

your brass that you’ve taped this end

your brass that you’ve taped this end cap to

and put your batteries into your laser

and put your batteries into your laser first you’ll need to remove the spring

first you’ll need to remove the spring

first you’ll need to remove the spring in the laser so right here you can see

in the laser so right here you can see

in the laser so right here you can see this little brass spring it’s a little

this little brass spring it’s a little

this little brass spring it’s a little too bulky it takes up most of the barrel

too bulky it takes up most of the barrel

too bulky it takes up most of the barrel now you don’t have to do this if you

now you don’t have to do this if you

now you don’t have to do this if you make the barrel a little bit longer that

make the barrel a little bit longer that

make the barrel a little bit longer that holds your batteries so instead of

holds your batteries so instead of

holds your batteries so instead of having a half inch barrel you’d probably

having a half inch barrel you’d probably

having a half inch barrel you’d probably make it a 1 inch but I was trying to

make it a 1 inch but I was trying to

make it a 1 inch but I was trying to make this as compact as possible and

make this as compact as possible and

make this as compact as possible and there’s a lot of spring there so what I

there’s a lot of spring there so what I

there’s a lot of spring there so what I did is I used some needle nose pliers to

did is I used some needle nose pliers to

did is I used some needle nose pliers to sort of push down and remove this foam

sort of push down and remove this foam

sort of push down and remove this foam that’s surrounding the spring and then I

that’s surrounding the spring and then I

that’s surrounding the spring and then I grabbed the spring using needlenose

grabbed the spring using needlenose

grabbed the spring using needlenose pliers and cut the spring down to about

pliers and cut the spring down to about

pliers and cut the spring down to about half an inch and then using the pliers

half an inch and then using the pliers

half an inch and then using the pliers and you don’t nose pliers I redesign the

and you don’t nose pliers I redesign the

and you don’t nose pliers I redesign the way the spring looks now this has

way the spring looks now this has

way the spring looks now this has already been taped up here using

already been taped up here using

already been taped up here using electrical tape so I don’t really want

electrical tape so I don’t really want

electrical tape so I don’t really want to take it apart sorry if you guys don’t

to take it apart sorry if you guys don’t

to take it apart sorry if you guys don’t really understand that I mean like I

really understand that I mean like I

really understand that I mean like I said this whole area is not necessary if

said this whole area is not necessary if

said this whole area is not necessary if you don’t want to adjust going from your

you don’t want to adjust going from your

you don’t want to adjust going from your triple A’s to your double A’s but I

triple A’s to your double A’s but I

triple A’s to your double A’s but I think it really adds to the whole look

think it really adds to the whole look

think it really adds to the whole look makes it a lot more compact and like I

makes it a lot more compact and like I

makes it a lot more compact and like I said I hadn’t seen any lasers of this

said I hadn’t seen any lasers of this

said I hadn’t seen any lasers of this size that are blue so there’s the blue

size that are blue so there’s the blue

size that are blue so there’s the blue laser so let’s so you have your brass

laser so let’s so you have your brass

laser so let’s so you have your brass here that’s about half an inch like I

here that’s about half an inch like I

here that’s about half an inch like I said and then you take your electrical

said and then you take your electrical

said and then you take your electrical tape and just wrap around after you’ve

tape and just wrap around after you’ve

tape and just wrap around after you’ve put the batteries in and adjusted the

put the batteries in and adjusted the

put the batteries in and adjusted the spring by cutting it and then reshaping

spring by cutting it and then reshaping

spring by cutting it and then reshaping it using the needlenose pliers

it using the needlenose pliers

it using the needlenose pliers I know it’s a little bit confusing but

silver black and like I said you’ll need

silver black and like I said you’ll need some earrings here and that goes around

some earrings here and that goes around

some earrings here and that goes around the edges like so and the o-rings are

the edges like so and the o-rings are

the edges like so and the o-rings are nice because you can easily adjust so if

nice because you can easily adjust so if I point out the target here let’s say

I point out the target here let’s say

I point out the target here let’s say we’re trying to focus on this dot which

we’re trying to focus on this dot which

we’re trying to focus on this dot which I shot in my wall using the crossbow so

I shot in my wall using the crossbow so

I shot in my wall using the crossbow so here we have I don’t know if I’ll be

here we have I don’t know if I’ll be

here we have I don’t know if I’ll be able to focus exactly but if I press the

able to focus exactly but if I press the

able to focus exactly but if I press the button you can see through the telescope

button you can see through the telescope

button you can see through the telescope that it’s lining up so let’s say you’re

that it’s lining up so let’s say you’re

that it’s lining up so let’s say you’re playing a game of airsoft or paintball

playing a game of airsoft or paintball

playing a game of airsoft or paintball and you want to tell your buddies meet

and you want to tell your buddies meet

and you want to tell your buddies meet me at this point you know they’re not

me at this point you know they’re not

me at this point you know they’re not going to have the best idea of what

going to have the best idea of what

going to have the best idea of what you’re talking about but if you look

you’re talking about but if you look

you’re talking about but if you look through a telescope and then identify

through a telescope and then identify

through a telescope and then identify that area using the laser they might

that area using the laser they might

that area using the laser they might have a better idea of exactly what

have a better idea of exactly what

have a better idea of exactly what you’re talking about because they line

you’re talking about because they line

you’re talking about because they line up so right now I am looking at the

up so right now I am looking at the

up so right now I am looking at the laser and focusing it on that hole that

laser and focusing it on that hole that

laser and focusing it on that hole that I made with the the hole that I made in

I made with the the hole that I made in

I made with the the hole that I made in my wall and as you can see they’re

my wall and as you can see they’re

my wall and as you can see they’re lining up perfectly and you can see it

lining up perfectly and you can see it

lining up perfectly and you can see it through the telescope so this can come

through the telescope so this can come

through the telescope so this can come in handy and a lot of situations and it

in handy and a lot of situations and it

in handy and a lot of situations and it was a pretty simple build like I said if

was a pretty simple build like I said if

was a pretty simple build like I said if you guys have any questions feel free to
