Can Crusher

thingiverse

This is a custom-built can crusher designed for desktop use on sturdy surfaces such as a desk. - It features three arms, one top plate, and a solid base. Assembly requires gluing the arm pieces into the base's cutouts. Next, file down the top plate with pre-drilled holes to ensure smooth up-and-down movement on the arms. To operate, place an empty can between the three arms, creating a makeshift 'belt' to facilitate crushing. Position the top above the can, aligning it with the arm holes. Gently press down until the desired level of compression is achieved. Included are .prt files compatible with NX10 for easy modification or remixing. If you choose to build upon this design, please consider showing appreciation through a tip or giving credit where due.
