Machined Aluminum Flashlight
Scroll ↓
In the class 2.670, I was taught how to use machine tools in the process of building a flash light. Using a mill, lathe, bandsaw, and other equipment, I built this flashlight out of aluminum stock material. It uses two AAA batteries in the handle to power a red LED light that turns on when the head is screwed onto the handle.
