measure 10 inches of the copper wire, and cut it. Then strip the plastic off the copper wire. After that attach the magnet to the bottum of the battery. Then take your copper wire and make it into a V shape. Then mold your wire around your battery. You can make it into any shape you want, just make sure it works.
