because actually turning the handle of the can opener would be too much physical work for an american.

@lock4445 G'day. Nice touch. Good idea. Thanks for posting.
I've trained my car to drink
5.3 Litres less fuel per week, by fitting a streamlined PV Panel. Makes up for Battery Sulphation, & Static systems drain, while parked.
Search 'sunfoil' for a nest of interlocking clips, the "Short-Talk" is the best entrypoint, the "SunFoil Science" maybe best value... & for a giggle, search 'solar thermal ramjet' to see NASA run backseat to a Hillbilly ! Open source, enjoy. Ciao.

I love the stuff "southerns" put on YOUtube. I am originally from NYC and now live out in Phoenix Az and Los Angleles....It seem know one knows what I am talking about when I mention this kind of homemade creativity....I would totally moved to the South if you guys would just stop calling me YANKEE....Nice work, even if it is just an electric can opener in a cordless drill...

Hey! You've invented the electric can opener! :-))

I love the drill can opener you should patend that.

Hey Lock,
Great idea! I tried the hole saw thing and it scared me to tears. Holding the can while the drill press spins so close to my hand was crazy! I tried your idea with just using the hand crank and it worked easily. I also tried to use it on the bottom and it was a little off angle but it worked. i had to adjust the ammount of pressure on the blade but it worked. I've been trying to figure an easy way to do this for months. What a simple solution! Your'e a genious!!!

wouldnt an electic can opener work?
slacker361 3 years ago
I don't know, but the soda can is shaped different it is curved at the top where a regular can is straight. I was surprised a can opener would work at all.

probably alot easier than drill, as sometimes the drill would catch the cans, as with sealant, suppose the bottom could be used to seal rather than the top of the can, simple knife to make deflection on the bottom too would be handy, as making the fins was extremely time consuming..
p.s, you got alot of time on your hands..lol

Thats what my neighbors think! :) Im wondering how much more efficient the fins are? It seems like would get better air flow without the use of an industrial sized fan.
