Step 2Make and Add the Collector
1. Cut a large V shape in the rim of the tin can, this is where the fruit stem will go in and be cut/twisted off.
2. Check how sharp the V is, just for your own awareness; i used secateurs, and it was not sharp to the touch.
3. Nail the can to the smaller end of the stick, using at least two nails in the direction of the length of the stick, with washers holding the can to the stick (it'll still work well without washers).
You will be able to bang the nails through the gap of the V.
4. You may wish to pad your can with material for minimal bruishing, but the fruit doesn't fall far at all into it so this is not necessary if you're planning on eating them soon enough.
