This was before I got out the hot glue to hold everything together.

Somehow one of the mirrors ended up slightly bent which makes it wide angle looking in one end and narrow angle (slightly zoomed) looking in the other end. This time it was a fortunate bug/feature next time I will try for it.
Materials used:
Small shipping box
Locker mirrors from Dollar Tree (plastic, had frame with magnet, cut to size with Xacto knife)
Hot glue

The periscope is all dirty now, from him carrying it everywhere.
