Be a Scientist: Bottle Electricity.

Step 3 Connect the inside.

Poke a small hole in the middle of the film cannister lid.

Cut a piece of wire about 7-10cm long. Strip the ends and thread the wire through the lid.

Turn the inside end into a loop, then use a piece of tape to stick it to the foil inside the cannister. Slide the lid along the wire and put it on.

If you are planning to add the discharge loop, carefully scrape away 1-2cm of the insulation from the wire that will be just outside the lid. Give it a twist to make the loop. When you put the lid in place, push the wire back into the lid until the discharge loop is just at the lid.

Quick tip: NEVER try to strip wires while your hands are covered in glue. You will end up making the wire so gluey that you cannot grab it, and your tools will be filthy. :)

By the way, GREAT Instructable
