🍻 Remove the Top of Aluminum Cans with this Tool!

[@jhh70]

I use the empty cans to grow herbs in.

[@chris]

Perfect!

[@RustyWrenches]

I've been using an old school can opener to do this for years for beer can chicken. This tool will make it much much easier than wrestling and cussing my can opener 🤘

[@chris]

Yes, and probably won't mutilate it as much! 😂

[@CoolHandLou420]

This gadget is ideal for any camping situation,so everyone can reuse the can for all the drinks. Or if you want people to think you’re drinking a soda,when you’re really drinking a beer.

[@HorizonFallen]

They have newer models of draftop can openers that work far superior to the original 1.0. I work for the company that molds the parts for the device and it's such a delight to see this video floating around. To see small businesses promote each other is awesome. Great channel. You have a new subscriber.

[@nicholasrump1376]

Is this just me or has the smell of an aluminum can never been a factor

[@eliaschevette]

it doesn't matter on light beers but it makes a different on heavier beers. Specially IPA and Stouts.

[@levitillman9507]

Never... ipa, lager, apple juice, or even water.

[@purpxhaze913]

A normal can opened will do the same. Now if they have a way to pull the lid out after that would be cool.

[@montagistreel]

no it works differently and always makes a jagged edge

[@kennethfarringtonjr6887]

I just bought one from EBay, on here to find some ideas for it, great video

[@thunderlips350]

I bought some beer here recently in Australia, Colonial Brewing Co. Pale Ale, and the ring pull takes of the whole top, so you get a can just like what's happening here. I hope it takes off with more breweries.

[@chris]

That's cool and would be great!

[@mindflayer]

Man, I just end up crushing the can every time.

[@2004dipsy]

I love this thing however how do I get the wrinkles out after I remove the top????

[@cthomasv]

That's my complaint too.

[@joannekeefe426]

You can use a razor or exact knife and just score it till it comes off

@@FlameGod23 did it work ? My dad took mine to try and ruined it :( Now I have to buy again...

[@khloe38]

I just bought beer cans to do this, but my regular can opener did not work. The recess on tòp of can was too deep for my can opener to reach and get traction. I was in search of another solution when i found this video. Either your cans were made different, or my can opener too small.

[@superomelet2897]

So you get to stick the likely dirty tool into your drink immediately after you use it, in order to push down the lid which is also probably dirty, in order to drink a beverage from a can even though it should have been poured into a glass?

[@erinsaluga5274]

You don’t know how to wipe something clean before you use it? This could be the corona issue we have in this country... don’t buy it if you don’t want to use it.

[@user-iw5ow5lf4s]

Here we have liter cans with wider rims, I wonder if this gadget is adjustable for bigger sizes.Do we need to get it sharpened every now and then ? Can I also use this tool for empty cans ? Thank you

[@haydenc2742]

Have you ever seen those soda can solar heaters...this would make it so much easier to construct..pretty cool invention

[@chris]

Whoa! I've never even heard of that. Crazy. Thanks for the comment!

[@nil0bject]

great for recycling the can after you've drunk the contents. plant pot, container, etc

[@vitok2010]

you can do that exactly the sale with any can opener.

[@kristinaalavanja9914]

What is the name of the tool ? Where to buy ? :(

[@WOS1962]

Thanks for your video. Can this tool be used to cut the bottom of the can?

[@chris]

Thanks for watching! But no, it is only for the top of the can. It won't secure itself to the bottom in order to cut it. It requires that lip at the top.

[@Hermiel]

I hope you're thoroughly washing the can before dunking the top into your drink, and then thoroughly washing your finger before using it to fish out the top.

[@poabeaving]

I hope you wash every can you ever buy on the go too.

[@jaxonpallone9344]

I hope you continue to lecture people on the KZbin comment section for the rest of your life

[@Gracitagouv]

Thnx, i didnt know how to use it. I'll be making miniture kitchen ware for dolls

[@nboldrini]

Nice idea but the cans are so thin they dent like crazy. Any idea how to firm up the can? Like maybe coating the inside with resin?

[@keekwai2]

They are single use.

[@aparnamitra1287]

You can freeze the can before cutting the lid. But, don't keep in freezer for too long.

[@jaysmelkinson5577]

Is there a way to do this in reverse? I ask this because I have a can without a top that I want to save but it has no top on it and if I removed a top from one can I could put it on another if this makes sense to people.

[@ao341]

How do you check the bottom of a coke can? Or something that is dark colored? : "Dump it into a glass, check it for aluminum... if you're good, then dump it back into the can." . Is that what you're supposed to do?

[@jch7807]

After cutting open, is it possible to pull upwards instead of dropping the top into the drink?

[@chris]

Sometimes it naturally pops up, so yes--in that case.

[@originalchemicalsupply.4449]

Hey friend can I reseal my soda for later using the same can n new lid?

[@geekie1]

Thanks for the video, Chris. I purchased the Mintiml, which purportedly does the same thing from another different, yet, outstanding Chinese company. Complete garbage. However, your product is a bit larger design and may do the job. Hoping to see a few more positive reviews and then maybe I'll take another chance. Not sure why I want this, but it does seem cool, if I can find one that actually works as designed. Don't think I'll be getting rid of that sleeve of Solo cups anytime soon, but let's see. Thanks again.

[@billybell8934]

You can legit do this with a regular can opener it works just fine if not better

[@mikejanson1939]

What about an empty can and u want to take the lid off to reuse the can? Other people give me the cans and I use them for stuff but I get them empty.

[@richardsunday1612]

I do NOT need this but I WANT IT !!!!!!!!!

[@steaky04]

Does it work for the bottom of the can?

[@chris]

Nope

[@vjmacintyre]

why don't they just make 'em like a fruit cup pull tab cover? Also, I've seen aluminum cans before filling and sealing, and they look like your end result. (I haven 't seen how they compress the lid onto the can though). are you sure this thing is CUTTING the can? maybe it's just twisting off the lid...

[@athensmorningstar7809]

The construction of the can adds the "lid" by basically folding the edges over each other forming a seal that won't break off easily...aka yes it is cutting it

[@bettystewart1623]

Does it work on the skinny cans, like white claw?

[@chris]

I haven't personally tried it, but another person commented recently that they could.

[@barlet001]

I have two. Unfortunately, none of them manages to open my cans of beers.

[@infantrywagon]

There was a bad batch that had came out at one point. You most likely got two out of that batch if you picked two up at the same time. If two at different times it could be user error as you see with him he uses it quite a bit and still Failed on the bud light can at first. Either way there’s the draft top 2.0 out, but a can. Opener does the exact same thing. On the 2.0 Still have to grab the top out of the can after. Idk why they haven’t made an update on the new one that allows the top to come off with the tool after it cuts the lid free from the can. At least they could have made a hook to where you can open the can prior to opening it, cut the top off and have some type of lip on the tool that goes into the mouth opening and allows you to pull it out that way, or grab the tab and remove without getting Your hands wet. The reason I’m so invested in something like this is I drink the 450 north and other good brand slushy beers. You can drink them normal or hence the “slushy” name, you can toss them into a freezer for 20-30 minutes and it’s made or turn into an actual slushy. You should see what the can looks like after the purple Have gotten the slushy out of the can through the small hole. If they didn’t get frustrated within the first minute and just cut the can apart with a knife a scissors 😂

[@AutobahnDan]

Pretty neat! It would be cool if they put a bottle opener on the side just in case you don’t have any cans..

[@chris]

Great suggestion!

[@Newokie59]

So someone invented a tool for a problem that doesn't exist?

[@tj_struck]

You could just open the can first, push the tab down, remove the top and use that tab to lift it off. What happened to Motorz? :(

[@chris]

Exactly one of the tips I share in this video! As for Motorz, new episodes are no longer published to KZbin. You can find it at www.motorz.tv, TV, and Amazon Prime Video.

[@mabeljoe4305]

and the can also becomes a cool car coin holder

Do you still have this tool? Went to the website to get one and they are unavailable. I sent an email to the company and was told they will be available in a few months. I need one today for some projects I am working on. Willing to pay real money for it.

this is the same as the Go Swing Tool? so it seems.

[@ClaytonGinther]

Pretty sure that's just a Chinese knock off.

[@LITEWRENCH]

The tops of the cans can be terribly contaminated. Then you punch them down into your drink????? I don’t think so!,

[@280zone]

Thats more than a 90 degree twist, and I'd argue that "tool" to remove it isn't much of a tool. Poking the filthy lid into my drink? Sticking a dirty tool and or fingers into my drink? Check for "possible shavings"? This thing is an all around fail in my book.

[@chris]

Like I said in the video, it just depends on the can, the amount of pressure, etc. Some cans open up a lot quicker as seen in the video. As for your "filthy lid" comment, most people put their lips right up to a can without wiping it or cleaning it whatsoever, so what really is the difference? You can also pull the tab before using the tool so there's a minimal dunking of the top when you peel it up instead of pushing it down. Yes, the "possible shavings" is just a precaution (kind of like McDonalds telling people that their coffee is hot), but as I noted in the video--I've never seen one and I doubt I ever will. Overall it's an excellent tool, and no--I'm not paid to say that. I just think it's pretty f'n awesome and I will continue to use it all the time. Not a fail in my book! Thanks for watching 👍
