Use M2 screw and nut to join parts 1 and 2 together. It is better to insert drop of glue between the parts before fastening the screw. It is better to sand the ball with sand paper little bit. For increase of friction cut the mouthpiece of patry baloon and put it onto the ball. Than insert it into the ball shaped hole in the part 3. Later use the M5 screw with the wing nut to fix it in the position you need. Cut the bottom of the CocaCola bottle with scisors and also cut air entrance holes in the top conical part of the bottle. Insert the strand into the hole in part 3 and screw the mount as the cap to the bottle. Before the first flight test the mount stability on bicycle or holding the strand outside the car window while driving slowly.
