Last night we had a teen VBS work night and here is our attempt at large Duracell batteries.  They are not done yet and we haven't figured what to put on the top for postive post yet, plus there is still a lot of fine details to be painted, but thought I would put them on here to see what you would suggest for the tops.

Great job indeed! Thanks for sharing. Needless to say, they'll make it to Dr. Blindstein's Groupie Album.

I used to work for a company that made Boost & Starbucks bottled drinks.  We could get these containers for free.  The ingredients for the drinks were stored in them.  So we just spray painted the lids a copper color and the rest black, and used acrylic paints for the wording.  

I just need to figure out the top, and thanks to the suggestion of pie pans, I believe I can find some smaller ones at Dollar Tree that will work perfectly.

I made giant legos once for a parade float and used a small styrofoam for the outside part.... I am think you could do the same.. you may need to cut the cup down and wrap it in alum. foil. Love you creativity.... cant wait to get started myself.....
