Hi my name is Elliott Kwong on behalf of Expert Village. Today I'm going to teach you how to make a kaleidoscope. Okay so we are going to want to cut our pvc pipe. Here we have a pvc pipe and remember it is about 1.5 inches in diameter. So let's measure that pvc pipe. I have a pen right here to mark it, so take it and let's measure off twelve inches. After that, I can beginning cutting. So I'm going to take this saw right here and actually it is smarter if I hold it like this. I will start to beginning to cut. Here I have the pvc pipe cut into two pieces and I'm going to use the twelve inch piece for my kaleidoscope and it is looking pretty good.
