If I could zap my aluminum cans with this thing, I'd be more apt to take 'em to the recycling center.

Now, I just throw 'em in the trash. hehehehehehe

Okay, call me a penny-pincher, but when I spend $1 million, I at least want to implode at extreme speeds, with unrivaled symmetry, precision and reproducibility something the size of a paint can.

The implosion must have really been something, but you've got to wonder what the rebound was like???

I can crush an aluminum can with my forehead. Can I get a cool mill?

I can crush them in a very repeatable way.
