Can Crusher - Take 2

benheck

Sure, I crushed a can using stepper motors, but turning on and positioning the CNC every time I need to crush one isn't very convenient - I drink a lot of diet Pepsi.

 

What are your ideas for an electric can crusher?

  • Build an industrial paper shreder and rip the can to pieces.  Place in a container and smash it down into a block once the container is full.

     

    Better yet make that container a crucible and melt them and pour them into a block.  Bonus use, Ben can create sand molds of parts he needs for projects and pour can aluminum into the molds and make his own aluminum parts.
