Periscope

Two 1-quart milk cartons Two small pocket mirrors (flat, square ones work best) Utility knife or X-Acto knife Ruler Pencil or pen Masking tape

1. Use the knife to cut around the top of each milk carton, removing the peaked "roof."
2. Cut a hole at the bottom of the front of one milk carton. Leave about 1/4 inch of carton on each side of the hole.
3. Put the carton on its side and turn it so the hole you just cut is facing to your right. On the side that's facing up, measure 2 3/4 inches up the left edge of the carton, and use the pencil to make a mark there. Now, use your ruler to draw a diagonal line from the bottom right corner to the mark you made. 5. Slide the mirror through the slot so the reflecting side faces the hole in the front of the carton. Tape the mirror loosely in place. 6. Hold the carton up to your eye and look through the hole that you cut. You should see your ceiling through the top of the carton. If what you see looks tilted, adjust the mirror and tape it again. 7. Repeat steps 2 through 6 with the second milk carton.	4. Starting at the bottom right corner, cut on that line. Don't cut all the way to the left edge of the carton-just make the cut as long as one side of your mirror. If your mirror is thick, widen the cut to fit.
8. Stand one carton up on a table, with the hole facing you. Place the other carton upside-down, with the mirror on the top and the hole facing away from you.	9. Use your hand to pinch the open end of the upside-down carton just enough for it to slide into the other carton. Tape the two cartons together
