When opening canned goods that are a thick consistency they don't pour from the can. I have always stabbed the bottom with an old can opener to break the suction and the blob would come out without having to dig it out with a spoon. I decided to make myself something that might be easier to use and this is what I came up with. The HandyDandy can piercer. I put the ball on the end to help keep my hand from slipping off and smashing into the can. The hardware is made with stainless socket head cap screws. I made the points from 5/32 welding rod. I drilled the screws with a #24 drill bit and the points were a press fit into the screws. I drilled and tapped the wood to accept the screws. And as usual I didn't stop at one and figured I could give some away. I also made a few more awls with some Purple Heart and some mystery wood that was pool table legs. Might be a Mahogany species.
