    Modding a beer can hmm...

    Put a cell phone in it so when someone calls you it'll look like talkin to your beer.

    As for the can being a res it would be nice if you don't open it, meaning you pierce it where fittings'll go and drink through that hole.

    And happy. Marilyn bought me a new wallet. 105th Anniversary of Harley Davidson Motorcycles!

    Wallet, key ring, copper bracelet, and 2 flags in commemorative box.

    That's because you visited the wrong pubs. See CAMRA for the right ones :naughty:

    There's only 2 pubs that I've been in that has Budweiser on tap, both have gone bust. Coincidence. KTHXBY

    Most pubs I go in have the standard set (Fosters, Kronnenburg, John Smiths, Strongbow, Guinness) plus real ales. And if the pub knows what's good for it, a well stocked fridge of Dog. My 'local' has a 3 shelves dedicated to it since I started drinking the stuff..

    How about a nifty harddrive enclosure.:D

    -I have been pulled over for drinking these, so they should count.
    [​IMG]
    -So you cut the can open and-OMG! I wet the bed!!!
    [​IMG]
    -Here's the trick to shaping the metal properly. Set up the metal on something soft. You take the harddrive you plan to use, preferably a brand new one...
    [​IMG]
    ...and you smash it just as hard and as violently as you can into the metal. -repeatedly!
    [​IMG]
    -One can can make each side.
    [​IMG]
    -Another set of cans will make the top and bottom. I know you are wondering what kick*ss material I use to hold this fine assemblage together.

    Nice Shirt John! (I've been thinking of making a DIY Silkscreen thingie so I can make my own slogans/tshirts.)

    @all of you... you guys are silly....

    I thought it had to be just 1 can, though?

    I like that mobo slipperyskip pointed too.
    Phone Can would be cool... just have to watch out for your phone while driving (they already have laws in place here in CA requiring headsets... but try explaining that to your local law enforcement!) or at a party... or around those recycling bums! (no offense to the recycling bums among us... read about some old eccentric guy (think in scotland) who wandered around collecting cans... turned out he'd died with millions of $$ in the bank! Wasteful...) ;)

    I usually don't collect the cans except for adding scale to my pics. Right? Yeah scale.:D

    I'm using 3 cans so far, or just some of the pertinent visual elements. Logos and branding.

    Dude wanted to bet me - he took on the wrong guy(s).

    The ones where you fill a can with wax and use cardboard as a wick?

    I made one of those back in the day in scouts :)

    Sounds like the drinkers of Bit need to head to Oregon. Plenty of different beers, and breweries there.

    No, not that one.

    TBH, the idea not mine. I got it of the Instrucables Website a while back and made it far a giggle.
