Thermal Detonator

 

 

Paint 'em gray To begin, paint the outside of the detonator/O2 canister the same gray you used on the ears/frown.  
Cement the halves together Once they dry, you need to attach the two halves to form a tube.  The directions suggested hot glue, but I have no idea how you'd get even a mini-glue gun in there.  I simply held them together & swabbed the joint with ABS cement.  I then placed(not glued) the end-caps on.  By the next day it was a surprisingly strong bond.
Nearly finished The next step is to apply the Mylar stickers.  Just make sure that there's no gray showing between where the caps will be, & where the outside piece will be.  See the picture for details.

You might get a few bubbles you can't work out, but just make sure that they're at the back with the seams.

Finally, I sanded off the gray paint underneath where the outside plate would go.  I them ABS cemented it in place as the directions show.  

Attached to belt For now, it is attached to the belt with white, IS Velcro.
