Tin Can Biker

Narrow wheels narrow track

Tin can biker reared back

Where he's going no one knows

Just following his nose and toes

Up till?

Down till?

Whatta thrill without a pill

Gun Fighter

He came through the tin can doors of the bar with his six guns blazing but still keeping himself as one single unadulterated can. In retirement now as Tin Can Head, he still has the hat with holes in it.

Legs from can body & head from the lid while the hat is top can rim and a tab of the can body - in case you are curious how he came from a can.

Granny Feathers

This tin can granny, Ms. Peacock, always wanted to strut

Tin Can Pete

If you had only a single tin can to make into a piece of art, how many pieces could there be?

More than the leaves on a tree would be a start.

A small jeweler's torch and a pair of pliers with maybe a dob of paint will get the recycled art program in gear.

The tin can art man,

Pete

Tin Can Art

It all starts with one tin can and a small torch.

Wind Generators

Wind generators. Looks like the one on the left is from California.

Witch

I had to trace this brewer from a piece of clip art, but she come all out of one tin can.

Tin Can Lid Gryo

If you save your tin can lids, they can become Xmas tree ornaments, gryos, universes, crazy circles, spirals, springs, .....

Blagh

The old bottom of this tin can is in the tips of the spikes while we are looking out through the top.

Two Story

With a bike and a table and chairs on the first floor, seems a bed and ceiling fan might go upstairs in this recycled juice can.

Fireball

If he spins the loop, looks to me that he'll whip his head for sure with the top red flame.

One tin can.

Balance

Isn't life all about balance?

One tin can at a time.

Surfer

The cool can surfer might have come from a seafood can.

Golfer

Why is he raising a leg and what is he attacking?

If the glass were half full, he would be celebrating having thrown the ball to the cheering crowd who like black and blue.

Gymnast

The tin can gymnast is thus forever looking for a ten.

Kite Mountain Clouds - All in One Can

The kite is from the lid which was originally on the bottom till the can was turned over. You have to figure out where the clouds were. The mountain is obvious as most are.

The top is on the bottom.

Spinners

It takes two to spin.

Can you see how this came from one tin can and a few drops of paint?

Shark Attack

As I came out of the Home Depot, this smelly warm breath seemed to envelop me from behind

Yes, one can tells the story.

Tin Can Fun Forms

Fun tin can forms - just playing.

Candle Holder

Cutting with the Smith Little Torch gets easier with time and the pattern from the candle looks better. Most of the process it to get used to setting the flame and then holding it the same distance off the round can as you burn.

The red steel work can become addictive.

Spaying the finished can with most any clear coat will prevent rusting.

Candle Holder - Plasma cut

To keep the shine on the can, either use scissors (hard to work with) or a plasma cutter which heats the burn line with a very focused heat. You need good goggles, some luck, and more $ to get a household voltage plasma cutter with a built in air compressor, but you can see the results you can get with the burning beast.

Tin Can Hoops and Hoops

Well one hoop lead to another and another and it seemed sad to ever end? Yep, one can just hooped out.

Photo Holder

Ah what a sterling group in the tin can round photo holder!

Gallon Can

So we have not set a limit on the can size so here's a gallon can looking for some very thick paint or maybe a big candle or a light bulb??

Wild and Goofy Guy

He just kind of unfolds on himself with the top can rim as arms and who knows what base.

Engine

The tin can has to want to be an engine. Looks better with the wheels black, but you get this cow catcher idea.

Tin Can Family

They may get along or on the other hand ......who likes a weirdo waving two flags all day?

Slinky

Slinky will jog and bounce and jog and bounce if you jerk his bottom and carefully release him.

Kite Flyer

The top rim of the can makes the kite string while the can top is the kite and the tail comes off the body of the can. The gent is running around the can body. Easy to mess this one up.

Tin Can Pete fools with just one humble tin can and burns away the unecessary to leave the art design that was hidden in the cylinder. He uses a Smith Litttle Torch and pliars, but you can start with a pair of scissors or tin snips.

What do you see in the tin can cylinder? Here are some ticklers to get you rolling.

Tin Can Stuff

One tin can has a lot of art in it - if we can find it.
