So i made a led lighted monster energy can, and this is my first instructable so I'm not too sure if this is very good but, this shouldent be very difficult to built, it took me about one hour maybe to do this.

-For this project you need dremel tool for cutting and grinding, you can use pliers also for cutting,
-something about 10x 8 plexi glass
-Can of monster
-3 or 4 leds 
-12 volt power supply( depends on how many leds do you use)
-Hot air blower( I dont know the real term of this tool)
-Hot glue

I'm sorry if my english is bad :D
