What a coincidence, then, that I run across this little Indy racer made from old Coke cans. Scott, the “TinCanMan,” has been creating airplanes, helicopters, race cars and more from aluminum soda and beer cans for 15 years. “I made only airplanes for the first 5 years and after that, other ideas came to mind which made the process easier,” Scott writes. “Now, when I get other requests, I can look at an object and get good ideas on how I can make it.” Visit his website at www.tincanman12.com.
