Another Way Of Cutting Cans
Once you’ve selected which Cans your plane will be made out of, take one Can and hold it firmly at
it’s bottom. Using your wire snips, cut through the ring at the top of the Can.
Now grab the ring with your wire snips and PULL the top off the Can. The top will normally tare off
right where the Can begins to taper inward to the ring.
Continue PULLING until the top of the Can comes off. Then cut down the side of the Can with your
scissors. Next use a smaller scissor to cut the bottom off the Can.
Use a straight edge, or a paper
cutter to trim the edges smooth.
Trim Can to 3 5/8” x 8 1/4”
