Philco model 70 rebuild - by Tim P.
#22

I came up with idea of using pipe cutter and it works well, but one mistake I did was that I thought 1-1/4" cutter would be enough (and the price difference kept reinforcing this point of view) and it happened to be not quite enough so I have to push the cap into the cutter and it first smooshes the can, especially the aluminum one. And spending another 50 bucks for 1-1/2" one when I had already bought the other one feels wrong....
Otherwise is an excellent tool for the job.

Before I was using a hacksaw. And a steak knife (a goof Wusthoff forged sharp steak non-serrated knife. )
And, of course, Dremel with thin cutting disk.
