like this one quart stainless steel bottle it lists on a closeout thing I got it fried in a dollar ninety-nine to two dollars or something it was pretty pretty inexpensive so I'm going to do is going to cut the top of it here at the shoulder and make this thing just a little bitch but turn this into just a kind of a cup you know you can buy the I know you can buy them anyway but for two dollars who cares all right let's see we can do here put my foot there all right I did pretty good but it kind of looks like it kind of kicked up a little I can just kind of hold this here yeah yeah that's better now I gotta know I have a funnel yeah yeah very good all right so now we'll just send that up clean it up send the writ the edge here throw this thing in a backpack and I'm gonna use this to cook some for one kind of a one person in the ground meal okay so the next thing we want to do on this is we want to clean up the edge kind of take any outside burn off that sort of things so I do that just on this belt sander

that's pretty smooth on the outside and I just got to take a little burn out the inside so I've got just a little fine sanding disc on here very so it takes that all right so now just take some hence and the last bit down and we're good to go okay so just tear off a piece of knowledge about Genesis and to get around inside of there a little bit by hand

I just want to dress out the top this little bit here get on that right okay that's pretty good there now this old raggedy piece of sandpaper is a little less aggressive so I'll just kind of dress around that just a little bit very good you want to have a bottle end up with just a little bit of radius here there's no sharp edges anywhere so now take this emery cloth here essentially it's 600 grit and get around the inside and around the outside here there we are there we are no nobody jizz everything's smooth everything's smooth here now ready to drink so I can use it as a cup I can cook in it or whatever gives me just something a little bit taller so that makes a decent-sized little deal here and cook in the fire on a stove or whatever with this guy yet I can find packing stuff in my pack I can throw ziplock baggies of foods or whatever down inside of here so basically it takes up no space in my pack really so and it doesn't weigh very much

well in fact let's see what it does wait all right so let's sit our so we're we're sitting here at just a hair over four ounces not bad at all so anyway this is a perry peacock take her around in the shop here just just taking it on a sheet bow stainless steel bottle chopping off the top and making me a nice stainless steel cup out of it so there's Perry peacock wilderness innovation I have a great time enjoy outdoors
