Soldering your own furniture from beer cans

How about some home made metal furniture from beer cans (Aug, 1936). 420 cans has been soldered together and has produced the table and chair shown in use below. Bernard Dier of Chicago made it in ten days. I think that the construction would not last a week in my home. Are the cans empty or not. Empty ones seen way too unstable to do furniture like this.

My late father, Bernard Dier probably made this when he worked for an advertising agency in Chicago. I think Pabst was a client.
My dad did not drink beer, it gave him head ache.
I think that this is nothing more than an advertising prop.
Barney Dier retired in 1967 as a Chicago Police Captain.
