This is Ben Gonyo for Expert Village and we are building a kaleidoscope. So we have got
our mirrors put together, a three-sided mirror, and tube. And now we are going to cut the
tube part of the kaleidoscope which is made from a standard mailing tube which you can
pick up at Staples or any mail supply store. You want to cut the tube so that it is a couple
of inches longer than your glass mirrors. So we will put a little mark, and this is
not an exact science, this is pretty easy. Just put it up there, make a little mark here,
right about there looks good. We are going to use an Exacto blade to cut through the
tube and you want to be careful with and Exacto blade of course. Just poke it through and
you are just going to turn the tube a little until you get around the tube. We are almost
there. Finish strong. And we did it.
