powder cans
« on: October 31, 2023, 12:48:45 PM »
Hello, two powder cans I built. I finished the little one yesterday. I use tin cans from the supermarket, it's not easy to find small screw caps made of tin for the small can I found an old pill box that I could use for thise. The best screw caps I used were the ones from the Goex powder cans, but I can no longer get them today they are all made of plastic.

Those are some pretty cool cans you made. It's getting harder to find anything in metal cans nowadays.

Those cans are really neat. And yes, metal cans are harder and harder to find. Especially without the ridges.

Nice powder horn also.

That's the epitome of recycling cans.  Great idea and useful as well as very good looking.
