Making A Steam Punk Rifle Day Two

Today was a good day to find two glass shaped diamonds to glue to the end of the copper pieces with a cut out circle traced from one end piece with a fine tip marker onto a sheet plastic styrene (040" Thick 1.0mm) with a hole in the center of it for the lights. I used the water clear epoxy 330 to glue the glass diamonds to the end.

Had to buy some wire one spool of red and one spool of black to run and thread the wire threw the copper tubing, and used E-600 to glue some Velcro strips to the battery pack and to the side of the shotgun stock.

Before soldering the wires together test the connection to make sure that the lights blink then solder.
I didn't have a chance to mix up the fiberglass resin to wrap around one end of the tube and stock
