certain US states offer up to 10 cents per can, fewer states offer 5 cents. most states aren't in the recycling program though so your cans are worthless in all but like 12 places
>though so your cans are worthless in all but like 12 places
lol no way dude, scrap aluminum..especially ubc are usually top dollar compared to recovered fibers or polymers
OP, if you have a constant supply of getting cans like this you should call around to local scrap yards and recyclers to see what they would offer you
If you have good material they will pay you and come pick them up for you too
If you can get a small baler and crush them into bales, you can make even more. especially if its clean.

For reach people LARPing as the poorgays, million dollar home made out of trash.
i will never stop hating the hippies
Earthships make a ton of sense, I just dont get the "build them out of garbage" angle. A south facing bermed home is a brilliant design, but do it in ICF or something.
obsession with being green and anything purpose made and being sold for the first time isn't green enough so you gotta make it out of kombucha bottles and bedbug cum
"earthship" isn't even about it being in the earth as in soil, it's hippy "we gotta steward our planet maaaan" stuff
>cans in the foundation >still using all that concrete
so what exactly is the point of the cans then other than to structurally compromise those walls with that tin foil can that can crush under the pressure of the concrete? people like this are frickin morons. you arent saving the planet this way you are being a moron
melt them down into ingots using a cast iron muffin pan to shape them, then you can stack way more cans. Don't listen to people telling you to recycle them for 20 cents, that's dumb. Always stack cans.
TRUTH! nobody will buy your backyard redneck melted cans for any premium price.
>just sell your cans goy >t. nocanz
Don't listen to these homosexuals that just want you to sell your cans, OP. Ask yourself why they don't want you to have them. You should be focused on stacking.
>what the frick is a can stacker/melter?
A homosexual who thinks owning a diy furnace makes him Johnson Matthey. Typically they labour under the delusion that melting down cans into shitty ingots is somehow profitable, amassing debt and "stacks" of worthless metal.
Michigan introduced the ten cent deposit in 1976 but never indexed it to inflation. It should be $0.53 now, though I imagine they wouldn't want to deal with pennies and would only increase it in five or ten cent increments. Probably haven't because people would hoard the cans before the refund increased so they could get $0.50 for cans they deposited $0.10 to get.
fleshlight
Solar heater
Saw that idea but I just don't need it at the moment.
I don't live close to a 10 cent state unfortunately. If I take them to a recycling center I'd get under $40 for the lot.
recycle them for like 20 cents a pound. else, stick them up your ass
just recycle them bro get 10 cents each
>10 cents each
Where the frick do you live?
certain US states offer up to 10 cents per can, fewer states offer 5 cents. most states aren't in the recycling program though so your cans are worthless in all but like 12 places
in those that dont offer that, you will only get scrap prices which is usually 20-30 cents a pound if you are lucky

OP I just counted them and I also arrive at 768.
Thanks for checking!
Really cause I got 767
sometimes i love this place
this post is truly awesome
those cans
those lines
that counting
the double double digits
i really liked this
.
oh, it is 768
squares are cool but triangles are a superior means of counting
-1
(-1 * 0) / 2 = 0
good job.
sourceposter you have been btfo on this before dont even try
good thing that you'd never count a negative amount of things cuck
Start building an Earthship.

that looks so gay. only a homosexual would live in that house.

that looks like complete shit and garbage

Each can is filled with grout and allowed to harden before placement.
Wrong they are still filled with soda
For thermal mass?
so the wall is 99.9% concrete and then some metal cans that could be melted down and reused
>Each can is filled with grout and allowed to harden before placement.
so whats the point of USING the cans then if its still pretty much an entire solid wall? the cans do nothing
aesthetics you fricking autist
>aesthetics
>trash stuck in walls
i never said it looked good

>don't return them for cash just turn them into worthless slag
I will never understand you can melters, you will never be a real foundry.

choose one and only one, moron
depending where you live, the recyclable deposit can outpace the
iirc at 10c per can it's way outpaced and you're literally better off trying to form tiny can-shaped barrels that will fool can crusher machines

Or shoot a legislator.
fixed it for you
Why not fill them with foam and fill the whole wall with it? It'll be good insulation
Start planning for next Christmas.
neat
Hahahaha this is awesome and very cute
I'd do it too
Neat art piece
Don't stop collecting until the wall is complete
some kinda stove
If you lived in krautland, you would get 192€ for this
A giant ass antenna array?
>ImAutistic.jpg
throw them in the trash and join AA.
More cans for the can wall!
Might as well finish the wall of cans
Table and chairs.
cool, if you simply use them as bricks, in that configuration, with a strong mortar mix, they make a very sturdy wall.
I guess you could cut them into strips and weave them into a basket like those old juice box bags
