How to Put a Triangle Mirror in a Kaleidoscope

This is Ben Gonyo for Expert Village and we are building a kaleidoscope. We have the remaining tube piece, the longer portion, and our mirror and now we are going to put the mirror in the tube so that it stays. This is pretty easy. This is where the newspaper comes in. Yeah, you could probably use something fancier, foam bits, or some kind of glue but this works just as well. Super cheap and why now right, recycle some paper. All you do is your going to wrap some newspaper around your mirror, okay? You are going to put it in all the way to the bottom. And then you take extra newspaper bits and just sort of fill in around it, pushing down, packing it in there. And once you?re done it will be in the middle and I promise you it will not go anywhere.
