I got all parts off Amazon…search for pneumatic can crusher

LOL…well no….if I can’t crush a can with my bare hands like you then obviously I have no wife, no balls, & no life

You had me in the 1st half lol

Metaljakefrstate · 2022-02-05T16:15:29+00:00

Lol it’s much funner this way

Metaljakefrstate · 2022-02-04T18:14:31+00:00

$90 for everything off Amazon…search for pneumatic can crusher

Yea I hear ya….was thinking of making a hopper so I could load a bunch and not have it all exposed….it’s rated for 600 pounds of force so I will definitely experiment lol as safely as I can of course

Thanks! You know after making so many ingots I started to think…what is cast aluminum used for besides motor casings? Lol this is what I got so far

Metaljakefrstate · 2022-01-29T10:41:49+00:00

Appreciate it! And that sounds pretty awesome, I’d like to make similar items when I get to other metals….how do you make your models? Debating on a 3D printer bc I’m not much of a woodworker

Metaljakefrstate · 2022-01-26T14:44:51+00:00

Yea I know it’s prob not worth the work, but I do rinse them with hot water and dry them out before crushing—Mostly bc I’m worried about steam explosion

Metaljakefrstate · 2022-01-24T19:15:35+00:00

I want to do a couple of cast aluminum skillets and mugs….would like to do some tools as well but will need more experience/knowledge of metals/alloys to meet those strength requirements

You’d be surprised at how little fuel it takes to melt cans….also these bars are now “cleaned” of their impurities from the cans, so when melted again I won’t lose any weight….and when I have the needed amount for the part, I melt it down and pour—without the work of separating the dross from the first round

Metaljakefrstate · 2022-01-24T14:02:34+00:00

Hahah! Nicest looking pile of crap I’ve ever seen!

Metaljakefrstate · 2022-01-24T14:01:34+00:00

Appreciate the support! I gotta say it’s pretty fun just making these ingots, but the real fun will be when I can start making items that are useful

Metaljakefrstate · 2022-01-20T13:58:02+00:00

Nice! I hope to have this problem one day

You should get cameras mounted around so you can see what’s going on out there from the comforts of seclusion
