This is my attempt at the Reach M9 High Explosive Grenade. I plan on making a mold to cast alot of these... and maybe manage to explode one as well (though I WILL NOT be posting that here.) So, let's start. Here's what I want to achieve

First off, i need a frame. I saw these at Walmart and thought instantly- GRENADE!!!!!

Who doesn't like Coke and polar bears. I mean, Come on!!! Next we peel off the flashy stuff. I then fill it with plaster of paris. This keeps the bottle rigid so construction is alot easier.

Next, the fragmentation plates. I used foam. Later I'll resin it to harden and seal the foam.

I drew lines on the bottle to space the frag plates. It's in a "star" configuration so each line is 72 degrees away from each other.

Then, we add the plates with hot glue.
