From a Chi print shop owner who found himself inspired after spending time making stickers for Bics, FCQ takes lighter customization to a new level, churning out handmade aluminum flame cases crafted from old cans, though hopefully not Madonna's, since they're no longer in A League of Their Own. The completely green process (which he's streamlined to about 15min per case) starts with a cleaned 'n cut can, which is transformed through a series of origami-style folds and carefully finished to prevent any sharp edges, as that could lead to a Bloody Sunday. Brands he's tackled include usual bargain brew suspects (Old Style, Hamm's, PBR), imports like Red Stripe and Kirin, and a bevy of soft drinks such as Tab, Nehi, and Arizona Iced Tea, though considering the average age of Law and Order: SVU's audience, is it any surprise he switched locales?
