Make Turbine Pinwheels - Amazing Coke Can Project

- Turbine Pinwheels! Dialed In version of the basic pinwheels - make something new that can be used for fun and decoration! This is not your ordinary craft project. In this video I will teach you how to turn a drink can into a turbine fan / pinwheel. We will then get more Dialed In and make three different ways to display them; hangers (hang from a tree, a balcony, a plant…), table top displays (perfect for picnics, BBQs, parties and more) and even put them on a stick so that they can be used for silly fun (just remember that these are aluminum cans so they can be sharp; caution is advised). The handle version can be pushed into the ground, sand, potted plant or anything else that can hold them up or they can be attached to a place that gets a good breeze… perhaps the back of a bike. Just put these in the path of a slight breeze, a fan or even a strong wind and watch them spin.
I had fun getting creative with some spray paint and came up with some festive decorations. This turned out to be a great way to recycle or repurpose some aluminum cans. Actually, everything that I used in this video was a repurposed item so my cost to make a bunch of these was FREE! Yep, 100% completely FREE! The key materials that I used were as follows:
- Aluminum Cans (rinsed and dried)
- Metal coat hangers (the kind that come from the cleaners)
- Tape or beads (used as spacers beneath the pinwheel)
- Spray paint (I just grabbed leftover materials from other projects)
- Dowel rod or stick (optional for mounting as a handle)
- Wood blocks (optional for mounting as table top displays)
Tools that I used include:
- Masking tape (for laying out cut lines)
- Box cutter (for cutting the can)
- Marker (for tracing out the cut lines)
- Wire cutters & pliers (for cutting and shaping clothes hangers)
- Hole punch (like an ice pick) or nail (to make small hole in top and bottom of each can)
- Drill (for making holes in optional handles or table top displays)

No matter what your purpose is in making pinwheels this method is a fun, craft - like project that is great for making something new out of something disposable. Pretty cool!

End note: I love taking a project and continuing to seek ways to expand or improve upon it and that is exactly how I came up with this Turbine design. That is why I am “Dialed In DIY;” because I like to get creative and keep Dialing In my projects and designs. This is stuff that I really enjoy doing and I simply hope that you are able to get some enjoyment from the videos and/or projects as well! Thank you for watching…. I greatly appreciate your support!
I will try this to hopefully scare the squirrels out of my garden. Thanks.
Hello, why don't you use it as a Maglev windmil to generate energy ?
Multiple in parallel above each other..
Why not ? Just leaving it here
Hello👋🙋♂️ there once again..

i dont really know what i would use this for but hell that is COOL! can u do some project where u would use these? keep up the good work!
Thanks and yes! :-) I have a couple of ideas that I have been experimenting with for using pinwheels in other projects... beyond the "decoration" kind of ideas mentioned in the video (I made a bunch of these for outdoor table top decorations... sort of a fun, festive summertime thing).
cool project, interesting voice! :)
Thank you very much for the feedback... I had to re-listen to some of it to double check but yep,.. I cringe on some of these when I hear them again. I used to record voice late at night and would try to be quiet so that I did not wake anyone up in the house. It sounds like I was going for some kind of late night radio voice but that was not the goal... LOL! Thanks for watching the video too!!
@@DialedInDIY my pleasure! :)
I wonder if you can use these for energy...
Absolutely... hooked up to a motor it can generate power with enough wind.
I need a vedio
why not wear work gloves for folding? nice idea though
Hey, your voice sounds like the character named Spike from the anime show called "Cowboy Bebop" ! are you the english dub voice of Spike Spiegel? xD (Spike is kind of a bad*ss so this is meant to be a compliment)
Totally wish I was a voice actor (it is one of my dream jobs) but sadly, no. Either way I would take it as a compliment so thank you very much! Thanks for watching and for the comment!!

:-) [So sorry for the delay... life kinda got in the way for a bit]
Have you figured out how to turn it into a wind turbine?
I put an axle in one and hooked it up to a mounted motor (small motor) and was able to get some power flow from the motor contacts. I just have not taken it past that step. Were you going to give it a try?
Thanks for taking time to post a comment.
@@DialedInDIY Not yet. I was wondering if you could use a 12 volt battery and dc converter and somehow get electric from the pinwheel.

Hmmm... I'm curious. Nine as in "no?" 9 out of 10? Either way, thanks for taking time to watch and post a comment.
