    can openers work for the top part

    • @vuaeco
      @vuaeco  7 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Nope. Can opener does not work at least for what I'm doing. I need a thick lip at the top so it will keep the inner ring in place. It's the "groove" I was talking about at 5:18. A can opener will cut the top almost to the rim. There's no more space to insert the inner ring in it. If you think about it, a can opener will need to cut it in a way that the top lip wouldn't be too thick or it will get food stuck when you try to pour food (or whatever inside the can) out. I need that top lip to be thick so it would contain the inner ring in it. No can opener would do that or it would defeat the purpose of a can opener. If you don't need to top lip to be thick then yes, a can opener would do it, but not for this project.

      No worries. I just wanted to clarify. That was a good and quick way to cut it for other types of alcohol stoves though.

      @@vuaeco You know I love ya buddy, but the way you're doing it with the Stanley knife is not safe. Besides cutting yourself with the blade should it slip, chip or suddenly cut (!), there's also the risk of getting the meat on your knife-holding hand jammed in the blade retractor lever when it pushes closed (as it did at 1:00). Ask me how I know! LOL
      Short of a Dremel or Rotozip, the best tool I -can- am able to think of would be the type of can opener on a Swiss Army knife (also, on some older dual bottle/can openers). It follows the curvature of the rim, and you can control the width of the cut by varying the angle.
      Play safe, my friend.

    I found using a using a can opener is the easiest way to remove the top portion of the can. When you use a can opener is a clean-cut. I also use the middle portion as a wind guard. I've even use the top portion that cut out as a means so that you can snuff the stove out or you can use it as a separator in put a piece of call inside in a bit sucks up the fuel that you put in whatever by your choice you can keep the core in the fuel. but having the lid the one thing is using it to snuff out you can slide it across ithe can. I have made dozens ofof these Coke can stove and a few to cut a beer cans from your model period I have just changed it a little bit. I've made a few Penny's toes and you are correct they are not very what I've had to do to get even one it wasn't very beneficial. I then used the accessof the penny stove I used the excess by making a candle holder so I took the two ends of the candle you drink and put thosesealed after bottom you can use that as a candle holder period so I used all parts of the can but to do the candle holder you have to make the which is the bottom of each can. I don't find the penny stove that it's not productive it is more of a problem.

    Use a Vimto can instead.
    The groove on the top is the same diameter as the groove on the bottom, and will let you use a parallel, rather than tapered, inner wall.

    Use books as a height adjustment and a leather man serrated blade by laying the leather man on the book use more or less pages to get a precise height adjustment. I suggest 3.5 centi meters for top and bottom halves. Don't use a can opener it will destroy the top ridge which supplies strength.

  • @crazysquirrel9425
    @crazysquirrel9425 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    instead of cutting out the entire center top, cut out about 2CM or 1" circle.
    When you light the center alcohol, the flame will heat that lip and transfer to the burner area.
    Faster priming that way.
    I wonder if someone has a downloadable template so we can draw it out on the center part of the can and cut to fit.
    Much easier and more accurate than guessing.
