Step 3Make the Spindle

Make the Spindle
I drilled some holes in the spindle, and cut the cocktail straws to where they would fit into the peanut butter jar, then inserted (without glue) into the spindle. Nothing inside the jar should contain glue, and more importantly SHOULD NOT CONTAIN SOLDER! A lot of solder contains lead, which is bad, as any self-respecting pirate could tell you. Next, cut a hole in the peanut butter jar lid large enough for the spindle to freely turn, but small enough to help keep it in line. I took the spindles out, added a plastic spacer/washer to the spindle, then the peanut butter jar lid, then the DVD base, and put the cocktail straws back in. I glued the peanut butter jar lid to the base to hold it in place, then once again made sure everything fit. Oh, I also cut the spindle to peanut butter jar depth.

Whoever first said "sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me" obviously never attended a ninja poetry slam.
