sinaptix,z3n3rg gave some good tips on how to put this whole thing together. You could also draw the design free-hand as you said. I did that the very first time I ran into the Shield. I used a clip board and 8 1/2 by 11 piece of white paper, starting with the inner most hexagon and working outward. It did take me 3 attempts before I got a half decent drawing. You can also print it out and then put a blank piece of white paper on top of it and trace it, which it very easy and gives you a nice straight-lined design. Try to keep the lines as straight as possible but they do not have to be exactly perfect either free-hand or when you copy it.
If you get a larger piece of paper, let's say 11" by 17", you can make the inner most hexagon a bit bigger and in turn you'll have more room to draw the whole design. So making it slightly larger I would assums is fine. I usually have done well with just the same size as original.
I think the bottle would work best with glass, I've never tried plastic. There are plenty of small bottles used for other things that you can shop around for. z3n3rg's suggestion for a bottle was good. I used a women's lip gloss bottle, which I cleaned out, and was made of clear glass and fit exactly inside the inner most hexagon. I've noticed that some homeopathic remedy bottles, are very small and also work well. Just make sure you wash them out and if they have a plastic cap you can try that first, and see how it works, as a cap inside the Shield. I found a small bag of corks at a hardward store and also some crafts stores sell them too. But the first time I did use the plastic lip gloss applier as my cap and it worked fine, I didn't even push it down to secure it but just placed it into the opening of the bottle.
When using designs like this, creativity is the rule, you can try alot of different things, and find something that works well for you. The bottle size must fit within the inner most hexagon, since a radionic design like this gathers it's energy from the drawing itself. The term witness is used in radionics to denote a representation of who you intend to send your treatment to. In the old days most witness' were hair samples, and sometimes saliva. Also, on the Hieronymous device you can use the same bottle and saliva sample as witness, but most of the time I use a polaroid photo of myself with the Hieronymous device, I cut it down to fit on the small witness area. I've tried a polaroid photo in the Shield but did not get good results. So you have to try this and try that.
Another very interesting experiment is to put a question inside the bottle, you can roll it up on a small piece of paper, with the Shield. Make sure you also put the Q-tip with the saliva too along with the question. I did this once and left it overnight, the next morning as I was getting dressed I had an "ah ha" sort of thought, which seemed more like a message in a way, and my answer to the question just popped into my mind. You can ask just about any short question, a good suggestion might be, "What is my soul purpose in this lifetime?" or "What is my next step in my spiritual evolution?". Or maybe if you lost your car keys last week, you can ask "where are my lost car keys?".
I hope that asnwers all your questions and good luck with your experiments!
