Exert pressure on the groove of the box and make rapid back and forth movements.  When you have formed a hole, make sure to enlarge it to open the can.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_340335\">\n<p><div id=\"attachment_340335\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-340335\">Tin cans in the pantry eating from the kitchen \u2013 Source: spm<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The tin can can also be opened by rubbing it on a stone.  Locate a pointed stone that you can put pressure on.<\/p>\n<p>Place it on the stone and hold it firmly while you rub the box against the stone for 5 minutes.  Press against it until you notice that the lid has come away from the edges.  At this point, by pressing with your fingers, you can remove it quickly.<\/p>\n<p>It is likely that the lid will not open completely during this action.  You can remove it using a rag to avoid injury to fully open the box.<\/p>\n<p><span>The knife trick<\/h2>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t have a can opener handy, you can use another trick with a knife.  This is one of the most used methods.  The advantage of this technique is that the object is present in every kitchen.  The tip of the knife should be placed vertically on the lid of the box.  Then gently tap the tip several times so that it slowly pierces the lid.  Once you have a small opening, you can push the knife towards you.  All you have to do is cut in a circular fashion like with a can opener!<\/p>\n<p> <span> Read also<\/span> <strong>Inserting a needle into a banana peel: the awesome trick that makes life easier<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tin cans consist of a thin metal lid that can be difficult to open without a can opener if you<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":200,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-199","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.9 -
