Periscope Laser Cut Files – DIY Optical STEM Project | Educational Reflection Science Model

Build a real working periscope and explore the physics of light reflection in a hands‑on way. This laser-cut STEM project demonstrates how mirrors redirect light, allowing you to see around corners and over obstacles. A focused 45–90 minute build that turns optical theory into a functional device you assemble yourself.

⚙️ WHAT YOU’LL LEARN

• How light reflects at equal angles
• Why two mirrors create a straight optical path
• How real periscopes are used in engineering and observation systems  
• This is more than a toy — it’s a functional optical model.

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTES

➡︎ If your material thickness differs from the listed options, you must adjust slot dimensions for proper fit.
➡︎ Mirror stickers are not included. You will need to source reflective mirror sheets separately. Helpful links are provided.
