Roll Your Own Hologram with DIY Holography Kit

If you’re looking for a DIY project with a 1980s theme, this create-your-own hologram kit is your ticket to 3D greatness.

Over at Make magazine they’ve put together a tutorial for creating your own holograms using the DIY holographic kit featured in the Maker Shed–Make’s storefront for DIYers. The kit is $99; certainly not pocket change but on par with other holography kits on the market and even a bit generous with the inclusion of 20 sheets of holographic film. Check out the video above to see how easy it is to capture small objects on the film and create your own holograms.
