Hi all,
I've cut open many spray cans that the spray nozzle didn't work , I just throw a metal spike into the can from 1 meter away,
the spike is a round 2 foot rod about an inch thick with a sharp point on one end.
I wouldn't drill a hole into a flammable pressurized container, It's not the drilling that will get you, It's the electric spark created by the motor in your drill, look into the vents in your drill and pull the trigger, that blue arc you see plus fuel vapor equals KaBoom.
Never had any problems with the spike idea ,cut open more than 50 spray cans this way.
Sounds like a great job on the electroplating BB,If you want a job done right ,do it yourself .
Cheers
Max.
