got bored this weekend

made a can crusher this weekend for no apparent reason. had some steal laying around and youtube gave me some ideas. really simple but it was rewarding to make something from nothing

cylinder is 4in bore, 8in stroke, 1in piston diameter. runs at 120psi and puts down about 1500lbs of clamping force. will take any can you throw at it and turn it into a 1/4in thick pancake

First thought after watching video: "Honestly, who the hell needs this?"

[4 seconds later]


"...Hmm... This would make for less recycling to take out..." Damnit, I think I need a can crusher now!!
