My life has been forever changed after watching this inspirational video. Before I watched it I was a 39 year old man who still lived in his childhood bedroom. But after watching this it gave me the inner strength to pack my stuff and move to the basement. There is so much more room for activities down there. Thanks Potato Slicer Can dude!
I never fully realized what an unfulfilled life I had until I spent 16 hours building this and while rotating the last part of the potato sliced off the end of my index finger and thumb. Now I have encountered complete satisfaction of life.
May I suggest you show the finished product first, then one can decide whether they want to put the time in to make it. For me wasting 5 minutes watching your video could have been avoided. Thanks for your attempt .

And here's me thinking it was going to be a starting handle for a Moggy 1000 & it turned out to be a spud slicer .😂😅 Wallace & Gromit would have been proud of you 👏 😊
This video gets the Guinness record on the number of expensive, high powered tools needed for a single tin can while not affording a descent can opener 😊
you perfectly articulated the cognitive dissonance i experienced one will experience watching this. If tovthe conclusion, you may want to seek counseling
This must be the End of the World, Apocalyptic Spud Mangler that we forgot to buy before it all went down...LMAO 😂. The end of all things... except spiral cut potatoes.
I was standing out on the ledge of a bridge ready to jump when the police negotiator ruled up a large TV and showed me this video. I never realized how much I had to live for
@@NomadcreationsFor sure. Now, if he would leave out 90% of the details of smoothing out the edge of the tin can and 90% of most of the rest of it. This project could have taken 1 minute and 30 seconds = 90 seconds.
Someone said it is a cheap project? Hmmm, $9.95 for long bolt, screws, nuts, and washers, $1.79 can of peaches, $2.25 coke, $5.95 for razor blade cutter, $49.95 heat gun, $75.50 power drill, and a couple of other things. This compared to a spiral slicer at Walmart for less than $20. No, it is not a cheap way to do it!
Straight to the comments because you know that some folks are losing their mind over this. 😄 Ill probably never make one of these but its very stimulating to watch the process and the ingenuity. Lighten up people.
There is a much simpler way to do this with a kitchen tool invented by a chef back in the early 50s. A long 'screw-like' center piece with a blade attached to it with a handle that is does exactly the same thing that is simply 'screwed' into the potato. If you cut through on side the finished string of potatoes to the center you also get another presentation of potatoes. I still have one of them and it works great.
This little invention changed my life and gave me many days, months, and years of sublime happiness. I've been going to religious retreats for years but this thing surpasses any Zen experience I've ever had.
No really i didnt mean it that u r boring. No really. U r brilliant. As for the potato spiral, my wife, she wore as her necklace to our anniversary dinner at our local fish n chip shop.
I like how the guy thought it all out. If it's not a potato spiral tool, he could think of other stuff. Gives me confidence that I can think of stuff like this.
Not bad for someone having a mechanical workshop but impractical for the common homeowner. I would rather pay $10 for the real thing. Thanks for posting anyway.
Great suggestion. Might I suggest you invest in a more modern can opener? Even a 20th century one would do the job safely and remove the need for the pliers to make the edges safe.
Love this video. I don't know why but it gave me a feeling of watching Wallace and Gromit working away in a Grand Day Out. Something to do with the way it is filmed and the sound effects I think. 😁 👍
Whenever I see the words brilliant or genius I skip straight to the last 30 seconds. About 1% of the time it’s actually worth going back and watching the video.
The money you saved on the ancient can opener, allowed you to buy the drill and the heat gun and at least one bottle of soda and one can of whatever the hell that was. Good job dude.
Couch potato tunes in. "Hey, I might be able to do this! All I need is an old time can opener! And a snips. And a craft knife. And a pliers. And a marker. And an electric drill. An a mini whatyamightcallit. And a screwdriver. And a file. And a heat gun, and a vice, and a butane burner, and an angle grinder and a workbench, and a workshop sander and a gluegun and a pipe cutter.... and a tube of glue. But I only ever eat takeaway so no cans, damn it!" Nice little video though.
Going out to make one now !! I only need a Drill,Table top sander,dremmel,ink pen,drill bits,knife, length of threaded bar,nuts washers,green gloves,screws, OH AND A CAN OF POTATOES !!
Some people have way too much time on their hands. I could have peeled and sliced that potato before he finished converting his tin can. But kudos to his imagination.
I was thinking this was going to be some type of bird feeder. I used to have a very simple kitchen gadget that would cut potatoes, zucchini, etc into spirals. It was metal with a screw type thing attached that went into the vegetable and a semi-circular blade with a hole in it that you put your finger then just turn the blade around like a pinwheel (or dialing an old rotary phone) and it cuts the spirals.
I'd never have believed that I could, just by buying and learning how to use $2000 worth of power tools, and by buying another few hundred dollars worth of all-thread and other materials, I could transform a can and plastic two-liter soda bottle into something that could make spiral-cut potatoes!
Generally speaking, if you spend 500 bucks at a Hardware store to cut a potato, instead of just getting a potato cutter on Amazon, there's a good reason you're broke
Yes. You could have peeled and sliced...but once this has been put together you can use it over and over..and I bet it will work much quicker than your idea ..

I bought me something that does that at Ace Hardware. Took just a minute. Didn't need to buy nuts, bolts, cutters, glue, cans, bottles, rods, washers, files, pliers, flame, pipes, tin snips, clamps, or anything. Didn't have spend a whole day on a project. Three minutes my *ss.

He has all the tools but the right one for the job

Quite a bit of trouble but neat. You know there are hand can openers that break the seal which leaves no sharp edges.

Good idea mate. In this day and age people are just going broke, start showing people more of this.
yes but to cut this potato we need to buy a drill, Grinder, and a blow torch
