Jack-O-Laser of Doom

Step 3 Attach Laser Mount & Laser

For this step I mounted the 7 or 8 length lego with the axle so I can change the angle of the Laser.

Next I took apart a $30 laser pointer from office max and used another zip tie to mount it.

I Put the zip tie over the momentary switch and sinched it down so that the switch stayed on.

**Help.. the switch has 4 solder points on it... I wanted to figure out a way to jump the switch but didn't want to risk ruining the laser** what is the proper way to take care of this?

if you look on the bottom of the curcuit board you will be able to see that there are metal film cut out and laid on to forn the different curcuits by looking three of the solder points should be conected togeter with one of these films all you have to do is put in a jumper wire conecting the three pins to the fourth completely bypassing the botton this will make the laser come on all the time when power is hooked up

An FYI: A keychain laser pointer can be found for $1.00 USD at dollar stores.

eBay is pretty good - they have loads to pick from - mostly for knock down prices.
