You will need:

  2. key ring with chain
  3. copper wire or other material
  4. 1mm and 3mm drills
  5. pliers for cutting the wire.

For this step you have to remove the red gasket from the cap.

Drill a hole in the bottom like in image. Make sure the chain can fit in the hole.

Now drill 2 side holes for the wire. It is better if the wire enters hard through the hole.

Cutting the Wire

Measure the length of wire needed and cut it.

Attaching the Chain

With the last link of the chain in the hole push the wire all the way through the cap so it locks the chain in place.

Finishing Touch
