Coffee cans

Postby LDS on Thu Sep 03, 2009 7:56 pm

I was cleaning out the garage as part of the move. I threw away a big leaf bag filled with coffee cans. I used to save them and pass them out at workshops and to the kids at camps where I was demonstrating. Poke a couple of holes in the rim and make a wire bail and you were set to go. the kids loved them. I would catch the boys with their own camps set up in the woods, boiling their water and making instant coaco and sitting under their lean-toos like the big folks.

No need to move and store coffee cans.
OK, what's the other plan!

I use to shoot coffee cans with a pellet rifle when I was 13 it was alot of fun. I still use them for boiling water its a good way to recycle them.
