I threw this together on my break. I got the can on the bay a few years ago. SWMBO isn't too crazy about it so it resides in the cabinet.
A little off topic but thanks for the PIC I love the shelf, Looks as if I have found a small wood working project !!
Nice ideas all. Guess I should stop drinking a beer each morning and using the empty can. Might steady my hands a bit, too.
OK, I'm stupid. So you have a bank and stuff it with blades, then what? Throw the whole thing out? Empty it?
Depending on the size of the can it may take a couple of years to fill it up. Once it's full, assuming it was purchased/made with the intent of being disposed of, you seal it up well and throw it away. If the container is something you want to keep/re-use you'd empty the content into a container that can be well sealed...and throw that away.
That's because I am the King of my Castle. The master of my domain. The only rules in my home are the ones I set forth. I rule with an iron fist. All of which I do between the hours of 8am-4pm while my wife is at work ~then she comes home and bosses me around, cuz she's mean like that
My kids have a couple cardboard Tootsie Roll banks with plastic coin slot lids that have been sitting around since Christmas...
