In his latest project, laser enthusiast Patrick Priebe, owner of a company called Laser Gadgets, constructed a homemade Iron Man glove that lets him hold some pretty impressive superhero powers in the palm of his hand.
He can shoot a laser from his palm that’s powerful enough to pop a balloon or sear patterns into wood. He can also blast another laser from his knuckles, fire an aluminum slug and with an accompanying Iron Man arm piece, launch a missile made from cardboard and plastic.
The glove’s lasers are pretty substantial. A blue, 700mW laser blasts from his palm and is activated by the flex of Priebe’s hand. A 300mW laser comes from the top of his glove, deploying through an attached controller.
Priebe constructed the glove in anticipation of the new “Avengers: Age of Ultron” movie. He said it took him about three weeks to make.You can watch the glove in action here.

Priebe used aluminum to make the glove and spray-painted it with primer, metallic red and candy red on top. He made the inside firing mechanism with brass.
