I knew I was saving this for a reason.
I’m sorry I didn’t put something in for scale, but it is about 10" X 6.5".
Now what I am going to do with it? As of yet, no clue.
love it.
Put a low tap in it and put it outside your diner for the Beer Garden effect. Whatever you do don’t cover the graphics(https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)(https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)
There is a Facebook page called Australian silo art trail, celebrating the incredible artwork on Australian farm silos. so there is photo proof of all the artwork on buildings, you could make it a grain silo for a Brewery.
I like that Pete. I was thinking it would be a shame to cover the cans artwork. Pretty fancy for a beer can.

Way bigger than a beer can. It held 5 liters of Root Beer. BJs had them one Summer on clearance so I picked a couple up. Problem was, once you tapped it, you had to finish in about a week or it would go flat. Plus it took up a lot of room in the frig.
Wait. Maybe I should try to sell it on ebay as Artwork?
OK, here’s a better idea of size/scale. The hole where the tap was could become a door, maybe.
Time to whip out the napkins.
Maybe partner with this when it gets to the layout?
Wait! It could be a Covid Drive-Up Window! A kernel of an idea here.
I like where this is going Lou. You will have a fun build to watch.
Plowing right along, the napkin sketch appeared!
Thanks Devon, for the idea of keeping the artwork. I would have forged ahead and spray painted it.
Glad you are keeping it. Its pretty cool and unique and not at all uncommon to see advertising done that way. So glad you are keeping it.
OK, family stuff happened so I wasn’t able to concentrate on this, but with Covid going on and the whacked out rules, the crew put in a Drive Up window so you don’t have to get out of your car.
Just pull up and Wanda will take your order. Whoops, I need to put a mask on her!
When I was looking for a figure, this fell off of the pile. It fits into the hole on top and is solar powered, so now we have a light. I don’t remember what the hole was for originally, I think to let air in because the tap was where the door is now.
Ok, so this is not going to be as fancy as what some of you guys are doing, but I’m recycling stuff again. BTW, I am a 2 time winner of “The Spirit of Mik” Award for most use of recycled materials…
Lol amazing that COVID has even effected our modeling.
Lou, you will get my vote for best original can (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-laughing.gif)
Thanks, Dan, although I don’t think anyone has used those exact words to me before!??
Well, I’m honored to be the first (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-wink.gif)
What? No Bernie in there!!!
OK, now Wanda’s ready to serve you. Just keep a sociable distance.
As we get down to the wire, Nonnie the forklift driver pulls up to the window for a root beer on her break.
There is an outdoor break area out back.
Another shot of the drive-up.
OK, back to work. Breaks over!
