Wayne Buck Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Awesome tip!! I would've never thought of that! Looks GREAT and if you happen to get a dent in one, you could just say that you wanted "Diet" or "Tea". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewCfromSC Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 #10 punch? like a metal transfer punch of some sort? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
59 Impala Posted October 17, 2011 Author Share Posted October 17, 2011 #10 punch? like a metal transfer punch of some sort? Drew, I used a #10 hole punch. It's about a half inch in diameter I think. It fits perfect around the part that you punch out of the lid. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
