I\'m working on a costume that\'s entirely made of cardboard (it\'s a giant robot), and I was wondering What\'s the best way to1 turn Soda cans into
aluminum sheeting2: attach the aluminum everywhere on the robot3. Attach the aluminum to the aluminumThank you in advance.You are going to hate this answer: because the answer is: It depends. Without further details of what you are trying to accomplish its hard to know. 1: For instance if you are just trying to get small sheets of aluminum...cut off the top and bottom with scissors and one straight line down the middle. But if you are looking for something more accurate you may need to use a press or just buy sheets 2: Again, without knowing details its hard to say...perhaps you should use ducktap and layer the aluminium onto the cardboard like scale armor 3: you could use glue I guess....or do a weak weld...or if you scaled the aluminum then you wouldn\'t ahve to connect the aluminum to itself only to the cardboard. But it all depends on how quality you want the project to look...and what you want the end product to look like. But since you are talking about cardboard and cans I\'m guessing scaling the aluminum with duck tape should work for you.Why not heavy duty
aluminum foil glued to cardboard? that would look a lot better than patched up pieces of aluminum from tin cans. How would you connect the chunks of aluminum together? and remove the label. Note that soda cans have a coating of plastic on the inside. I don\'t see any easy way to attach the bits of aluminum from tin cans together, and remove the painted on labels. It would look just like that, pieces of cans glued together. In stead of cardboard you could use foam board which is lighter and more rigid.Other related question
