Does anyone know where I can find easy instructions as to how to build a thermal detonator? A round one like Leia's in ROTJ, not the cylinder ones Stormies have on their belts. Thanks so much

Thermal Detenators are basically grenades right?

I once saw a tutorial from a guy who made them with two metal ice cream scoops. Looked pretty good, too.
I can't remember where it was though, and it was a couple years ago.
I'll see if I can find it again.
Darn, I found an older tutorial, using Google, but the link doesn't work anymore. That might have been the one I was thinking of.

All right, Jedidad! You found it! 
This was the tutorial I was referring to. I found a prop page with a link to it, but the link wasn't working anymore.
Good job! ;D

no no no... that was all wrong. The way that little thing worked was you fill the ball with snapped off match heads and that's it. Upon impact after a decent throw they would light themselves and ignite in a wonderous flash.
And it's better to use a raquet ball - you'd get a tighter pack.
But never - NEVER try that without "proper supervision."

Raquetball bomb fabrication is a cheap way to amputation. There is never "proper supervision" when doing artisanal explosives and can end in mutilation or death. Its something to think about.
Back to Thermal Detonator - anyone have another source of half-spheres, I can't seam to find the proper ice cream sthingy around here.
