You'll be extremely disappointed if you glue on the top and find out later that it stopped functioning due to a missed test. **Parts Assembly** Fold the aluminum foil along its length until it's less than 5mm wide. Cut lengths of approximately 2 inches from the folded aluminum strip. Create a contact by folding the aluminum around part 3 in one of the divets, and then glue part 3 into part 1. Insert the battery with the writing side facing up. Fold the top contact roughly like this. Glue the top down, securing the battery inside. Be mindful not to waste it, as they should last for approximately 20-30 hours. Once assembled, prime and paint your creation.
