    That one's good Jay, but I suspect a bit high maintenance.

    Here's a thought for you:

    Actually Dave they do. It's not shown in the video, but there is a hand crank that goes with it that I let the grandkids use so they can crush cans by themselves. They love it!!!!

    Absolutely not a waste of time designing and making that can crusher, think of the brownie points you score with the greenies for recycling. I will have to visit your workshop to take in all the machines driven by the old engine when I get over there.
    I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.
