The difficult part would be using SNOT pieces to fill in the sides. This part https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=6177&idColor=86#T=C&C=86 would be a good top as it should cover the aforementioned piece entirely, and the studs could represent the bumps in your image. It would partially overlap the 1x2 tiles I mentioned, which could improve the proportions. Quote
bartleby Posted January 23, 2021 Author Posted January 23, 2021 I was thinking of using the 64566 piece you mentioned, extending it, clipping a bar, and using rotated wedge plates with clips. I tired the wedges with few bricks I had but doesn't seem to sturdy unfortunately Quote

Also, you didn't specify, but is it important that the underside be hollow like a real bottle cap, or can it be solid? Quote
