This is cool! When my dad passed he left me thousands of old beer cans he'd been collecting since before i was born, and I've had no idea what to do with them until now. Looks like I'ma start a "can"dle business

lol we use to do that when we were kids in Brooklyn. we would open the fire hydrant, and take a can and scrape both ends on sidewalk to turn the can into a cylinder and use it on the fire hydrant to increase the distance on the water coming out.

Thanks for the tip. I used a belt sander. Took about 5 seconds

Thanks for sharing this! I just did it on two massive novelty beer cans I wanted to use for storage pots. Worked really well, so easy and a great result that left the can in absolutely perfect condition

Thanks. I've always wanted to remove the top without squishing the entire can. I thought it would take some special contraption to get the top off cleanly, so this is a very neat trick. THANK YOU!

@pedroclaro7822

you can also use safety can openers to do so. I got a cutter made for cans, cuts them from the outside in a couple seconds.

Yep, 2 mins exactly, worked like a charm. Played havoc with my arthritic thumbs though 🥴

Worked like a champ. If you want to keep the top, either punch through the top instead of bending the tab, then tape a thin piece of cardboard over the tab before you start sanding so the tab doesn’t get sanded/worn. Once the top is off, you can press the flap back into place and boom, the can looks like it was never opened.

this seems like it’d work wonders for me! i collect cute cans when i find them, and i want to use them for storage, plants, etc, but i don’t have a can opener. but i Do have sandpaper and pliers lol !
