Turn an Aluminum Can into an Embossed Metal Box

Instructables user Mangetout turned an aluminum drink can into a very nicely embossed metal box. In this video, he provides step-by-step instructions on how you can do likewise. Once you look at the finished product, you'll be amazed to think that it was originally an energy drink can.

You can make aluminum a bijillion times easier to work with by annealing it. Just heat it red hot, it will become very malleable once cooled. It is very useful for making gaskets.
