In the can to me means. I got you covered. Whatever you need it is all wrapped up. Shooting has been done and we are off the movies.
It means, I start to work and you stop worrying. If I say I am going to do something by a certain time consider it in the can.
That leads me the main part of this story. A high level rep working for a huge Promotional Products company sent out an email saying he had looked on Sage and asked around but could not find a good vendor to provide his client with a Paint Can Piggy Bank.
I just so happened to be at a trade show that day and past the paint can vendor, who had all sorts of cans on display.
I put two and two together and figured I could help him out. I have never ever said no to client request for help and that has lead me down some interesting roads with more open roads than dead ends.
Well, you say what is so hard about a pint pain can decorated and has a slot for the money in the top.
It wasn't hard to figure it out, but I had not figured it out before I gave him the quote:
So here is how it rolled: the mfr said he could help find a person to die cut the lid. Then all of the sudden he could not. Oh, crap keep looking. Then I asked a McGiver friend of mine and he said use a high speed dremel. Easy enough in my mind, so I spent 30 bucks on bits that would work. Then I went to my die cutter friend and he made a die and we tried it and it absolutely butchered the the can lid and did not work.
Then I got an email from another friend asking for help. I knew his dad has a metal spinning shop and they might have a way to get this done. He even does the Academy Awards. How could we go wrong.
Well, he solved the problem and how. And they look perfect.
