90 restoration
#31

Thanks for compliments!
(I did not post the other cap, and it did come out nice but there's nothing special, it is plain Jane aluminum can with aluminum thread and a rubber insulator, so it was easy, the usual).

Oh, and I use a regular pipe cutter to open caps. I usually cut where the groove meets the rest of the cylinder so then when you put them back together it looks kinda natural. When the groove is at the top, I cut the top off; when it's at the bottom, I cut the bottom off.

The only thing I regret, I bought a 1" cutter and I should've bought 1-1/4" one, but for whatever reason the difference was that between 20 bucks and 50 bucks. So when I put the cap in I have to push it in first, so it dents it a bit, but then it's not that critical. Still I think I should get the larger cutter.
