Repaired this rare can for Rusty Bunch Member.
Had a Fellow Rusty Bunch Member ask for my help. Even though I considered myself partly retired from this activity It's hard to refuse & rare can & challenge so I made a exception & accepted the task. Being a rusty Dumper not the best Candidate. Here's some before pics. LEON.

Incredible. From those first pictures it looks like it would end up with some large holes.

Re: Repaired this rare can for Rusty Bunch Member.
OMG! That’s incredible! I was one of the three Rusty Bunchers that dug those 7 Germantown cans in Maine back in the fall and would have bet that one there didn’t stand a chance of holding together if straightening was attempted. I am just in awe!

Re: Repaired this rare can for Rusty Bunch Member.
Retirement?? I think you'd have a little side business if ya wanted one. Amazing work given the shape you got the can in.
Thanks. Dave

Re: Repaired this rare can for Rusty Bunch Member.
It was probably an auto-correct failure. He was probably trying to type innovator.
Focus: Cones and flats from Michigan, South Bend, and Fort Wayne. Foreign cans only if I bought them myself in the country of origin.

Re: Repaired this rare can for Rusty Bunch Member.
I could not help but laugh when you referred some people in this hobby as young. Everyone here is probably young at heart.Mark (expired) wrote: ↑Thu Jul 11, 2019 8:19 am Leon - you are a Jedi master - not only a plea for you to not retire - consider, please, giving a class at CANvention 50 to a flock of eager young Padawans!

Re: Repaired this rare can for Rusty Bunch Member.
My wife would agree with "childish," at least when referring to me!
Always looking for West Virginia breweriana from Fesenmeier and Parkersburg.
