Silent Running Detonator Key

I'm looking to build a 3D model of the detonator key from the end scene of Silent Running. Anyone have screen grabs, examples, anything?

Has anyone done these before?
 
...Anyone have screen grabs...

Awesome. Thanks ... I was doing the same thing (taking screen grabs from YouTube) ... Attached is by first pass on capturing the geometry of the key.

The bottom is interesting. There are two pins. You can see the large one in one of the screen grabs. They likely correspond to the holes you see in the fitting where the key inserts. The bottom will have a slight cavity, where the two pins come out of.

Because my client wants to print this out of Silver on shape ways, I need to have a couple openings in the bottom to make the key body hollow.

A start.

Some changes based on conversations with the client .... Not sure if the "tab" details are accurate, but they are likely.

Made some final dimension tweaks based on screen grabs and moved into 3D ... It's a two piece assembly to make printing and polishing easier. I ran a copy out on my Makerbot just to get an idea of scale and geometry. It;s rough but I think I nailed the proportions. The final file will be uploaded to shape ways ... My client wants on in Polished Silver.

thanks for your answer, this is great, I wasn't sure the shapeways aluminium could look that good. You mean that shapeways polished it for you as well? didn't know that option was possible. thanks for all those news. :)
