    I like that guys little machine. I would make it a bit wider though to dump small bags of them in at once. the machine itself is pretty similar to how the yards run the cans but on a smaller scale and without a blower or conveyer system. I guess its Time to break out the welder again. Thanks a lot to who ever posted this.

    I like the idea of a can crusher, but I have two reasons I don't use one.

    A: Money is tight, and crushing them myself isn't all that much work

    B: Can crushers are size restricted. Cans vary greatly, from 6.5 fl oz Starbucks Doubleshot Espresso cans all the way to the fat 24 fl oz twist cap NOS/Monster cans.

    I’m new here. Can’t post links but I have a video of my can Crusher on YouTube.
    If you look up “Qukslvr Can Crusher” you’ll see it. Please let me know what you think. Sounds like Darth Vader I’m told.

    In general, you can easily find a tinplate crusher.

    In general, you can easily find a tinplate crusher. This is a useful inventory for your home. Tinplate crushers allow you not to contact third-party processing organizations, but to independently turn waste into raw materials for new products, leaving all profits from this type of activity at the disposal of the enterprise. Here it will be important to find the right power of your unit so that it can easily cope with the work, because there are some banks whose strength is very large. Think about it. Good luck to you!
