Science Toy Can Crusher (Last One)

admin

I have posted a few can crushers on this board. I’m not obsessed with can crushing, but I have the maturity of an 8th grade boy so I like smashing things. I had everything in the garage to build this minus one pillow block bearing. Picture two is to show the hopper swings open if there is a problem. The boys had fun crushing stuff. I will use it in class and workshops to explain force and simple machines. Attached ImagesDave ReberWadsworth Ohio

Reply:I like it. One of these days I need to build one of these things myself. I think I want a flywheel driven unit would do nicely. Faster than pneumatics and lot more dangerous.
