Thermal Detonator help

Hello there. 

I'm wrapping up my ANH TK stunt build, and I noticed that the CRL has the little nub on top of the TD looking a bit more like a donut than mine. Was mine cast inside out? Thanks for any help.

Looks like a very soft pull, not much definition in the O.

 

This is how it should look.

You could speak to the supplier of yours and see if they have a better one, or speak with your GML as to if it will be an issue for approval.

 

You could also with some practice k(a lot if using a heat gun) add some heat just to that area, add washers behind and push in the dimple.

I myself am a thermal detonator addict, and as Glen mentioned, if you're absolutely stuck with using the plate you have, perhaps placing a washer sized to match the "donut" shown in the photo behind the plate (assuming you can remove it from the pipe), heating, then pressing in the dimple through the washer hole might work. Below are some links to my detonator posts:
