How to Make a USB Duck Laser for Science

Place a sheet of newspaper on a table. Place the rubber duck (aka rubber ducky) on its side on the newspaper. Cut a hole in the bottom of the duck with the blade of a utility knife.

Insert one end of a USB extension cable into the USB socket on the USB flash drive. Insert the flash drive into the hole in the bottom of the duck. Push the drive into the duck until it can no longer be seen.

Apply bonding glue around the hole in the bottom. Let the bonding glue set for a day.

Stand the duck on the newspaper. Pull its beak open. Insert the point of the utility knife into the mouth. Twist the knife clockwise as you push it through the mouth and into the duck's body.

Hold the laser pointer by the front end. Pull the beak open. Push the back end of the laser pointer into the mouth of the duck. Continue to push the pointer into the mouth until the front is even with the edge of the duck's mouth.

Grip the front of the pointer with one hand. Press your other hand against the side of the duck until you can feel the pointer inside. Rotate the pointer until you can feel the button on the pointer.

Stand your rubber ducky on your computer table. Plug the USB cable attached to the duck into a USB port to use the flash drive. Aim the duck at an "enemy" who is looking to steal your data. Press the button inside the duck to shoot a laser beam from its mouth.
