Only a 21st century laser was used in the making of this shirt. Take ordinary laser pointers to bling out your custom Star Trek shirt. Outfit phasers on your Constitution Class wardrobe. Try out the command chair in style.
Note that this is a red shirt. Only the cool people wear red shirts.
WARNING: Extreme geekiness bordering on the edge of the universe. You could take an eye out with that thing. Not a toy. Use only in controlled geek conditions. Learn how to solder and use all kinds of irons safely.
Firing the lazzors...
I sprayed some air freshener to mist the air so the laser beam would show. I need to wait for Halloween when they dump the fog machines.

Signing UpStep 1: Find Dilithium crystals...
No, you don't need to find Dilithium. Trouble does go looking for Lithium Rain though, most illogical.
For this you will need to create the dual laser module with white LED saucer lights.
I salvaged the parts from two small laser pointers that I found at the dollar store. They are a combination LED flashlight and red laser pointer.
For the shirt, I found a shirt at the outlet mall that was pretrimmed with black in the neck and sleeves. It fit the look of The Original Series Star Trek uniform. You can always add the collar trim and sleeve braid to a solid color shirt of your choosing.
You will need an inkjet printer to print out the ship and the starfleet crew badge. Print out on dark iron on transfer paper and iron it on to the shirt.
You will need a piece of iron on fusible interfacing to reinforce the area where the laser module is attached to the shirt.
Other materials and skills needed are the tools to do soldering and some essential tools for electronics work.

Kirkyquirky ibles(short for instructables). Welcome to ibles!Though second on the red shirt issue! Caitlin is doomed!
Now you need the ultimate accessory: A tribble purse.
(listens intently for either space monster music or space babe music)
Maybe I can sell them at the next SciFiCon and make a million bucks, er strips of latinum.
Thanks, I think it is actually crochet, but I can do both as long as the cats don't help. This is one project that it wouldn't even matter if there were cat hairs and snaggy bits in the finished product.
Plush fur should work for a sewn bag, too.
Now I have to dress myself and the dog as Trekkers for handing out Halloween candy. Or throw on an orange shirt at the last minute like usual.
Perhaps a knitted balaclava that looks like an alien or Klingon? I could get creative with just a few changes to this basic pattern:

Do you suppose gummy worms would be an acceptable substitute for Gagh?
