Step 5Marking & Cutting the Second Can
The idea here is to cut the second can so that the finished boiling pot fits together tightly with out crumples. If the second can is cut too tall it will crumple where the top section narrows.
1. Stack the two cut sections and place the full can next to them.
2. Mark the full can at the height just below the taper. (in this case, just about the silver line on the stacked cans.)
3. Once the can has been marked. install the bottom section. Use the same method as when stretching, but this time, insert the can until it bottoms out.
note: Doing this step now is important because of the amount of force required to do the insertion.
note: It is also important that the can be unopened, so that the pressure inside will keep it from collapsing.
Now that the bottom section is installed score the second can at the height you just marked. Use the same method as before with the "C" clamp and razor.
