Step 6Final assembly
Crease and push in one end of the paper tube as much as you can to add support. Then make 2 pin-holes at the base of the crease. Push the negative end of the 12uF capacitor through one of the hole.
Solder this wire to the wire cluster in the middle of the perfboard before pushing it out the other pin-hole.
Start the coil by soldering the stripped end to the 'hook' on the main perfboard and start winding around the tube over the battery and the 12uF capacitor. Solder the other end of the coil to the + side of the capacitor.
The wire of the capacitor is long enough to reach around to the positive of the battery - that is your on-switch. Push it to touch the battery and you get LIGHT!
Do NOT look into the light - it will be bright!
