How to make scale metal trash cans for dioramas

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Learn how to scratch build old-school metal trash cans for your scale model dioramas. It's a very satisfying technique - I won't say it's easy, it's actually rather fiddly, but damn the results are worth it! All you need is some metal foil and patience. Perfect to add extra grime and atmosphere to gritty urban models or old WW2 street dioramas. Join me as I show you how to make these rubbish bins in both 1/35 and 1/20 scale.

    I appreciate that you left in the part where you glued yourself to the can. That’s absolutely what will happen to me and now I can expect that. Also, when the tiny handles kept flying out of your grasp- 😂 so relatable 😅.

    Great tutorial. For added realism you can: Paint an address on the side of the can Lose one of the handles but leave the holder in place Crush the handle for the cover so it is flat to the cover I grew up with these abominations😁

    Really nice pieces and the weathering makes them look a nice toned down galvanised metal. A useful material I have used is the foiling around chocolate coins. Mum used to buy them for me and my sister when we were kids at christmas and its become a family tradition. Still getting them now and i'm 42! They are gold on one side and silvery on the other and i have used as heat shielding on vehicles and piping.

    small suggestion for the lids - next time you could just try putting the piece of foil over the coin, then press on it with something (same idea as the ribbed texture you made on the sides). the metal should stretch over the shape so you wont get those wrinkles then you can just cut out the shape

    Hey Dave's Model Workshop! Awesome video, the trash cans are excellent. I do have a tip on that lid though. If you remove a small triangle of material from the outer ring of material you'll get better results with the lip. You'll have a small seam, but it won't buckle out like that.

I wonder if anyone has tried cutting the foil longer and trying to wrap it under the coin? It makes sense in my head, but thinking and doing are different things. I'll be sure to try it and let you know if it works. Cheers!

    Pretty smart using the bottle topper to make the can grooves. To get the puckers out of your lid you might try cutting your circle quite a bit larger, glue the coin to something flat then use a popsicle stick as a mandrel. The extra material will keep the edges from puckering and when you cut off the excess gives you a bit of material to roll an edge on the lid like you did the can base.

    You did a great job without being boring. I thought perhaps you could use some parchment paper with a little cement and fill the trash can halfway with the cement or even mortar you can get that already mixed. That way your can will hold its shape and also give it some weight.

    Nice to see that even a seasoned builder can be a butterfinger :) Very useful stuff indeed.

    These are the cutest things ever! Thanks for making this video. It probably won't happen this year, but I'm going to try making these for my Dept 56 Dickens Christmas village. I've bought several character and vehicle accessories but I can't see paying the high prices for little accessories like the trash cans, trees, cobblestone streets, etc. I'm a maker, so this is right up my alley. I also have a tip for the lids I think I'll try. You can leave a little more of the tin around the circle, cut it in small snips all the way around to get a pretty smooth fold. Then, add a narrow strip of the tin to cover all the snips. That does leave a seam at the top of the strip but I don't think that will look bad as long as it doesn't go all the way to the top of the lid. I'd also like to try to fold a tiny ridge at the bottom of the lid for a finished edge like real trash can lids, so I'll have a little experimenting to do. You certainly demonstrated a lot of great techniques to try. Saving this video for reference.

    Thank you Jana, and that is actually a brilliant idea for finishing the rims of the lids - I've never thought of that before. Inspired! Thank you!
