Here is my version. I used what looks like the same "bar end" light, but I mounted it in a CO2 cartridge. Since empty CO2 cartridges are a biproduct of bicylcling, it seems more fitting to use them than to use machined aluminum housings on a rat rod.

I just went to the bike pile and found a similar kick stand. I used a flat piece of metal to pry the spring clip off. A big screw driver, a pry bar, or a nail bar should work. Under the spring clip I found a 1/4 inch round pin that serves as the detent and a rectangle steel block that...
