Hello Friends,

Here is a very fun project, actually I needed a push button for one of my projects but the market store was closed that day. So I thought to make one of my own. Many times we want to make something of our own which could be used to anywhere else. In this instructable I made a very simple DIY push button which you could use in any other tools or equipment as a switch.

So, here I will show you how to make all parts very easily with all available materials at your home.

So stay tuned.

Step 1: The Design Blueprint

A sectional view is shown here with a diagram.

How all the parts are connected and the contents so, it will get easy to understand clearly that whats the inside mechanism will be.

Step 2: Materials You'll Be Needed

Here is all the parts that you will be required,

1. Plier

2. Pen knife

3. Copper strips

4. Copper wire

5. Superglue ( fevi kwik )

6. Empty pen refill

7. Pen cap

8. Some wires

9. Soldering iron

10. Sketch pen

Step 3: Inner Mechanism

In this part i made the inner mechanics with the empty pen refill, copper strips and copper wire.

So, firstly take a small piece of copper strip, then take some copper wire and make a loop around the strip and then insert it in the empty refill piece.

Some wires will be coming out from the refill which will act as joining connection later.

Check the first step diagram for better understanding.

Step 4: Body and Other Parts

In this step I will show that how I made the body part and fitted the inner part.

So, first take some copper wire and turn around a refill and make a spring or you could use a normal spring which fits in your size.

Now, Insert the inner part in the spring so that the wire coming out from the inner piece touches the spring.

Then insert the whole assembly vertically into the white body part but don't glue it, it will act freely.

Also cut a small piece of refill and glue with a round paper piece and insert in the top touch tapping part.

Step 5: Make the Bottom Part

In this step I used the bottom part made from a pen cap as shown in figure.

Now, take some copper strips and bent it vertically and insert through the bottom cap.

Also cut a hole in the top part and insert another copper strip and bent it around the inner corners so that it touches the spring. ( it is shown in figure )
