✂ Turn Your Trash into Treasures

Upcycle your favorite 12oz or 16oz cans into planters, storage cups, and more using this friendly (but fierce) set of cutting and smoothing tools.

⚠ Safety First

Requires a utility or hobby knife.

⚠ WARNING: Use at your own risk. The knife and cut can edges will be extremely sharp. Always wear gloves throughout the entire process to avoid injury.

 

🦷 Chompie – Top Cutter

👄 Nosh – Bottom Cutter

These adorable tools help bite the top or bottom off your cans evenly with ease.

Slide Chompie or Nosh onto the can.

Insert a knife into the guide slot.

Slowly twist the can or tool to score and cut all the way around.

 

🔔 Bell – Edge Smoothing Insert

Use the Bell to:

Reopen any dented or bent-in edges using the stem end.

Slide the wide end of the Bell fully into the can to start smoothing.

 

🎵 Tuning Plate – Smoothing Cap

Once the Bell is inserted:

Place the Tuning Plate into the top.

Twist and press to gently smooth sharp or uneven cut edges.

 

🧢 Can Rim

For a polished and safer finish:

Add the Can Rim to the cut edge.

(Optional) Secure with a few drops of CA glue for permanent use.

 

🧪 Notes & Tips

Works best with standard aluminum 12oz or 16oz cans.

Every can and blade will behave differently – take your time and stay safe.
