Re: ring cameras

bodean We have the blink system. It's owned by Amazon. They had a deal years ago that was 3 outdoor cameras w/controller for around $200. No subscription. Hook it up to your wifi. Load the app on your phone. Sign up. I'm not a fan of the current app upgrade but I'm slowly figuring it out and gettin...

Re: 8 oz. Mule?

The Supplement ID's this can as a test can. They have plenty of paper labels, foil labels and I'm sure there are early shrink wraps in there somewhere. Definitely not a production can.

jwcans Agree, as someone with a small can collecting niche, I would certainly appreciate having it in my collection. As with many other "no love" cans in the book, there's a good number of them that attract "a lot of love" if you get my meaning. And yes, even if I didn't have a ...

Re: Common or uncommon?

TAB.png I can envision the pull and the simultaneous action of opening the drinking/pouring hole. What I can't figure out, why the saw cuts are there. Obviously they have to weaken those parts of the tab sections for bending or breaking off? The rivet on the left makes sense, it holds the part that...
