DX Matchlight

I've already posted this a while ago, but I just wanted to try out embedding a wma file. However, it's still pretty impressive that a 30mw $24 laser can light a match.

It took a while for me to get the focus right.

Nice job, mine definitely doesn't burn anything.
But I'm not going to rip it apart in order to get the focus right.

i didn't rip it apart. I just stuck the lens from a magnifying glass over the front.

Oh OK, with all the tape around it I thought you did some more to it

Yeah, thats just my cheapo craftsmanship. I just found a cap that was about the same diameter as the laser, cut the top off and taped a little lens over it. Now I can just slide it on and off depending on whether I want a lightsaber or a focused burner
