Must have shop tool

[danray48]

This is a great shop tool I made about 8 years ago. A friend of mine made one, then he got me the air cylinder, and I made one for myself. Since then, a few other friends made theirs. It has crushed a lot of cans over the years. Mine wont handle tall boys unless you twist it alittle. I keep a bucket underneath and they drop right in.

Actually mine moves just right, and it's not too fast. A friend of mine slams shut fast.

Hmmmmm .... cool man tool, but doesn't a regular old can crusher do the same thing, take up a lot less space, and if your an environmental energy nut, takes no energy to use. But definitely a man machine.....

I haven't seen a manual can crusher that can smash em like this one. And so much faster. Environmental energy nut? Nope don't care.......

One of the guys I used to work with collected cans, He would have half his carport full of trash bags with cans in them I think he could use one of those
