Re: im getting my can shortened and have been quoted ?55+vat is that a good price
I've done a couple with a hand grinder (£15) and a rivet gun (£5). But the line's never been perfect, I'd far sooner use a drop saw or bandsaw. I wouldn't fancy my chances of getting a good cut with a hacksaw, personally.
It depends a bit on the material, titanium's hard to work with- it heat hardens, but also the can sleeves are thin so instead of just cutting it folds up- very hard to grind down if you need to make corrections. Overheating damages the finish too.
