It might be easier to attach the batteries right to the tin, and use that at a grounding point, instead of running a bunch of ground wires.

That is what I was wondering, if it was going to be a sort of flashlight!!!!

Anyhow, if you can get the battery holders from Radio Shack, or someone like that, I would use the holders

Ok, I've got some searching to do.

Battery Holder of CR2032-25 , Easy In-Out battery insertion & removal - BH-2032-25

is a piece I'm looking for.

I've just gotta find somewhere where the shipping isn't 6 bucks for 4 tiny pieces.

Or if I can't find anything anywhere, I'll probably buy from BatterySpace.

They have good ResellerRatings

You could probably go out to Target or WalMart or a gas station or something and buy one of those little flashlights, then disassemble it and reassemble it inside the Altoids tin instead of trying to hunt down each individual part one at a time...
