How do you make a laser pointer?
I would like to be able to make a laser pointer and I don't mind how to make it but it has to be out of stuff that is easily available at home.
Please help me!!!

In the UK we have a chain called the Pound Shop. Everything there costs £1 (around $1:60). Occasionally, you will find THESE there. This is a laser level which contains a switch, two batteries and most importantly, a small laser module. I'm sure you can find something similar where you live.
This is everything you need to make your own laser pointer in the enclosure of your choice.

Given that you can buy cheapo laser pointers for well under $10 in most stores that sell office supplies, tools, or both... I'm not convinced making your own is worth the effort. Most of the DIY projects here are about building higher-power (and more dangerous) lasers.

Look at Kipkays laser pointer. That is the
simplest one.
