The problem is, the video doesn't give you the full "heat and stank" experience. Crosman makes the 12g caplets and the 88g canisters in close proximity, so you've got burning steel/oil stank along with 95* temperatures in the place when it's below zero outside.
Note, which they also don't show- 88g canisters are hot-formed, semi-molten steel pushed into form, dropped out the bottom and cooled. |

It also doesn't give a hint regarding the processes going on underneath.
I once worked in a steel food can plant, which formed the cans with a similar pressed cup/redrawn body process. My job was to maintain the coolant system. Imagine having to constantly clean out your bathtub drain, only instead of hair it's oily, razor-sharp hairs of steel. Like handling fiberglass from the depths of hell.
Anyway, I just thought people would find it interesting. |

| I thought it was cool. I always wondered how they made those things. |
