A working miniature trouble light made from LED's is a useful item to draw attention to the details of a model engine or interior. These step by step instructions allow you to make a trouble light for a number of miniature work scenes. The one shown here is in 1:18 scale but it can be made smaller or larger depending on the LED's you use.
