How to Make a Plastic Bottle Cap Container

I show how to make a small, lightweight and water proof container out of two plastic bottle caps. The caps are cut off under the protruding ring on the neck of the bottle, then the bottoms are made flat and glued together. It can be used to store matches, as a mini survival kit or for anything that will fit inside. This container is great for taking camping, traveling, biking, hiking and much more because it is compact, durable and waterproof.

Step 1: Materials

- 2 Plastic bottles with caps

-Hacksaw

-Epoxy/glue

-Sandpaper/hand file

-Clamp.

Step 2: Watch the Video

Please give credit where it is due

[Von Malegowski]

Credit to who? I've seen this done many times so it would be difficult to find out who originally came up with this.

[XxKingxOfxHeartsxX]

Grant Thompson the King of random the original person who did this

[ArtisanEclectic]

Grant Thompson stole his entire schtick from Kipkay. I'd be surprised if anything he has done is original to him.

you see a container, I see a firecracker

[SpyrosB]

Fill a cap with Potassium permaganate, add grycerin, close the caps tightly, run for your life.

Or mix it outside the container for a neat chemical fire starter

[ArticAkita]

a fun little ditty to make when you want to make something, I just whip then out without making them water proof just to hold small stuff on the go. ring box, agate container, or what else you can fit in it! great instructable!
