Glow Magic Wand
Description
My 4 years old son wanted a wand to play. First, I've decided to alter some wands available in Thingiverse and make room for the electronics. It was a daunting task and didn't work as expected. So, I've decided to create one from scratch with all the room needed for the electronics. INSTRUCTIONS --------------------- **What we need** - A 2mm LED (your choice of color) - A push button (those that come with arduino kits) - A 110mAh 3.7v lipo battery - 2x 2.5x20mm screws to screw the bottom of the wand to the base. - A XH2.54 2P male to connect the battery. Just wire everything together like in the image and you're done. **Assembly** The assembly of the wand is easy: Cut the legs of the LED almost to the end (see photos). Wire the LED with two long 1mm wires - long enough to reach the end of the base. Isolate one of the legs with thermal sleeve. Force the LED inside the top. Glue the top and the base with a strong plastic glue. Wire the push button and insert it into the hole - put a dab of glue to hold it in place. Wire the battery connector - ATTENTION TO THE POLARITY - and you're set. Just put the battery inside the base (it will not fit all - the bottom has room for it to) and insert the screws.
