Instructions
Print both pieces, snap together.
Cut a small piece off the top of a lemon.
Use a 2.5" drywall screw to attach the detonator to the lemon on the newly created flat.
Insert appropriately sized spring in the other hole (about 3/16" OD x .75" long, fairly weak)
Bend a pin out of whatever ~1/16" OD metal is lying around (I used piano wire)
Close handle, insert pin.
Burn life's house down at your convenience
Note: The solidworks files for the handle and detonator are exported from the "lemon" multi-body part file. You should download all 3 files if you want to try and edit this.

I am guessing I am having some sort of slic3r setting problem but every time I try to print out the handle as it starts to go up the skinny shaft my prusa starts to just glob the hell out of the abs. Any suggestions?

I'm going to throw a bunch of these in my carry-on bag next time I fly. That won't cause a problem will it?
I printed your thing but the Aperture logo isn't very legible. I would recommend you either drop the logo or make it somewhat visible when we print it.
You can see the results of my print at the following address:

Side note I absolutely love everything you are designing here on thingiverse.
The logo turned out really well here, so maybe there is some setting which can be adjusted for better results. I'm also uploading the logo free version now, too.
