Question

what you can make out of a pop can?

no recycling i used my other large bag of pop cans for recycling. I want to make something out of it now. I used the tabs for a bracelet and it is cool. What can I make out of the can now, if you do know then show me a video how to please.

Answer 1

You could make party lights. Buy a string of lights, cut the bottoms from the cans, attach the lights inside the top of the can and hang them out side for lights.

Answer 2

If I had a gum wrapper and a shoe lace too I could make a nuclear weapon. McGiver.

Answer 3

A camp fire! The site explains how it works. Only, you need just one can.

Answer 4

You can make a cannon. if you get a popcan, lighter fluid or (Something Explosive). punch a hole in the bottom of the can and inject the fluid. tape a tube on the other end of the can. (Be sure the pressure can be released into the tube) make a lid that will go inside of the tube to hold the pressure in. place a tennis ball in the end of the tube and light the fluid through the hole in the bottom. cover the hole and wait a minute. then release the capin the tube and send the tennis ball flying. (NOT AT PEOPLE) it hurts.

Answer 5

you can make a maraka

Answer 6

There's a woman on the HGTV boards (the Holiday Crafts or General Crafts sub-board there) who makes all kinds of incredible 2-D and 3-D things from soda cans, and also talks about how she does it sometimes.  

If you want to check out some of her stuff, I THINK you can just look for her screen name (Ennovy, I think it's spelled) and check out a lot of her posts

Here's just one:

To actually ask questions or reply on the boards, you'd have to join HGTV though (it's free).

HTH, and have fun,
