The little cap on the side is to fill the explosive - or in Rob's case, the pennies. The big cap on the bottom opens to show two holes. The centre is for the firing pin and spring (which are released by the handle flying off), and the side hole is for the detonator finger. The base plug holds them detonator in place.
