Just a real quick post. Wanted to share (show off) the aluminum gas can holders I made for my brother a while back.

They are 1/4″ x 1.5″ aluminum flat bar. I formed them in the brake press at work, cut and drilled the tabs for the straps, then had a friend at work weld them up. They weigh next to nothing and are very strong.

There is a “tall-thin” style of gas can that we like, and I made them so they would fit that particular one snugly. They can be had at Canadian Tire for about $20 or so. Then you use a rubber strap through the handle of the gas can to the tabs to hold them down. Just need to fab up a mount for the tire carrier, and we’re all set!
