Good drummer? Bad Drummer? Not a drummer? It doesnt matter, because with these sticks it won't matter how you sound, because the streaks of light will blow the audience's mind!

For this project tools you will need include:

 That would work, but this was the first time i made one of these, and it was a spare (old drumstick)

you could always use an Ahead drumstick and take off the end bead and butt end and all the wires and batteries could fit inside the handle since theyre hollow

 A video is on its way. And I tried drilling a wider hole the first time I made this, but it weakend the stick too much, and if you reinforce the wiring enough, with epoxy, beating the stick doesn't do much. (Atleast for me)

I'd love to see this in action in a video!

I'd suggest drilling a wider hole into the tip of the stick to make the LED recessed and then fill the gaps with epoxy. if its sticknig out liek that it wont survive a hard beating.
