Hi everyone! I know I dont post here that often, but I figured that everybody would enjoy this video I posted on Youtube the other day. I am being genuine, I really want everyone who would appreciate this be able to but obviously if you feel like subscribing or whatever that would be great. I will definitely post some more cannin' videos. Otherwise enjoy!
Happy Digging!

Hawaii has some areas that are surprisingly dry.

Post some pics when you clean up the cans so we can see what brands they were. Thanks

Thanks for sharing this, I agree with the others, It would be interesting to see what brands they are and how they clean up.
The "Y" shaped piece of pipe with the holes drilled in it that you held up and questioned,
I believe that it is the remains of the inside of a HD equipment muffler, most likely a truck.
STAY SAFE!

Thanks for sharing and welcome to the Rusty Bunch and site! Good to see some young blood out digging for cans!
I would love to see what cans you have dug that have cleaned up. From my years of digging, I'm not sure most of those surface cans in the video will clean up any. Looks like the rust is too far in the can, but I would love for you to prove me wrong. Good candidates are cans that will be buried and away from the elements such as sun, moisture, etc. look forward to seeing what you turn up and what will clean up!
Cheers
Greg

I am looking for a Primo aluminum flat top donor can for the foil label I have if you happen upon any. If you find one outside, the label will probably be gone (it was foil/paper label). Should be able to identify it by the aluminum body and the concave flat top!!

I will definitely post some pics if any clean up, I didnt think they would either but I sent some back to a friend in vermont and he said he could read a pabst, blatz and lucky lager logo. So well see. I sent a bunch back to myself in Vermont to clean and as soon as I get a chance I will clean and post, thanks guys!
