First ye need scissors, paper, tape, pen, marker, aluminum foil, paper towel tubes, and plastic cling wrap Harrrr.

On the piece of paper trace a circle around one of yer tubes Harrrr. then make a bigger circle around it Harrrrr. then in the corners draw 4 triangles Harrrr. then cut out the big circle and triangles Harrrr.

It should look like this Harrrrr. Then put a hole in the middle of it Harrrr. this will be yer eye piece Harrrr.

Then at the end of the tube put the eye piece on Harrrrr. fold up the 4 big piece around the tube and tape them up Harrrrr. It should look like this Harrrr.


Then take two paper towel tubes and put one inside the other Harrrr.
(make sure not to push them all the way Harrrr)


Put them together like Lisa the Mean is doing in this step. Put the plastic wrap on the other end and tape it in place. This be yer lens. Harrr.
