[MetalSlug]

I have ton of use oil filter, i save up over the years, that I told myself, I will cut it open when I find the best oil filter cutter, I alway want one of those. but life keep my mind away from it. Im now sitting here at my job and just realized about those oil filter

few year back I saw an user here using a fancy oil filter cutter, I think the color was purple. I told myself i want one of those. Any one know a good oil filter cutter that good but not cost 50-100 dollar. Give a clean cut.

I think an exhaust cutter is what a lot of people use that is fairly cheap, the specialty cutters seem expensive.

Wow what Stewie posted is cheap and looks good!

you know.. one of these:

I cut mine open with a sheet metal cutter attachment that came with my IR air hammer, Clean cuts & No media damage. Takes about 3 seconds to open a filter.

Dremel works fine.

Nobody will sell an oil filter cutter to a BITOG member unless said member can show proof that he has a filter cutting certificate. LoL

Anyone who's not a BITOG member however doesn't need the certificate because they were born with innate skills to cut open oil filters blindfolded without harming the contents inside.

ok as promise, here some of the old oil filter, I though I have more then this, I remember i save a K&N and fram TG few year back and some odd name oil filter, my wife must throw it away.

also I found an old old 10 year old Mitsubishi oil filter, I use to own a 97 Mitsubishi eclipse 2.0L and a Eagle Talon TSI AWD Turbo my first race cars, and crash it , the oil filter is only thing I have left that remember of that car.

I only keep 1 left, note the blue ADBV and the white goose oil, it use to be fresh oil, but its turn white now. I wonder who made this oil filter.

showing this bring me back alot memory when I use to take really care about my vehicles, " note" I write the time I change the oil

, now I drive all new vehicles and dealer do all the work, I dont check nothing, just drive til light pop up then bring to dealer for oil change, kinda miss changing my own oil , I have few that I change oil 1 a years and rarely drive.

I will cut these up when I have the tool.

No excuses! None!

There's some fat guy that jogs his sweaty, obese body down the street here every day, in an effort to burn off calories. If he can do that, you can do this! No excuses!

This was done:

With this!

Now get pumped up!

you know.. one of these:

Yep, me too. I've found that it just takes more than 1 or 2 times around the can to get it cut all the way through depending on the thickness of the can. It also helps to remove the gasket from the base and then go at it.
