Roll a rim on an Aluminum Bottle to create a Tumbler Cup, or a Cook Pot for
a backpacking stove.
This instructable walks through the process of making a mouth-friendly edge on
an aluminum bottle turning it into a Cool Reusable Metal Tumbler Cup.
The steps outlined here are, stand-alone, instructions to make a complete Metal
Tumber from an aluminum bottle; suitable to use as a lightweight tankard for all
your favorite beverages.

Step 1:
(http://cdn.instructables.com/FAR/BEAW/FYTCLVIO/FARBEAWFYTCLVIO.LARGE.jpg)
I have gotten inquires about the availability of this style aluminum bottle.
The bottles are obviously used for beer (and I know at least one soft drink)
however, availability of either (or any for that matter) varies by region.
As an added note: I had reservation about posting an instructable that featured
an alcohol container as it is not appropriate for all. I would have perfered to use
a soft drink bottle however due to availability in my area, I only have found the
beer bottle variety.
But ultimately, its the aluminum bottle that we're interested in, not
necessarly the beverage. Dispose of the contents as you deem appropriate, or

(http://cdn.instructables.com/FXN/YEYG/FZHL9SNQ/FXNYEYGFZHL9SNQ.LARGE.jpg)
Cut the neck off the bottle at the location shown in the picture. It should be at the
full diameter of the bottle; below where the neck starts to taper.
Aluminum bottles are a thicker gauge than aluminum cans so utility knives won't
work.
I use a hack saw to cut the bottle. Cut around the diameter rather than trying to
cut straight through. The saw teeth will catch on the edge of the bottle and leave
ragged edges.
Step 3: Start the Flare

(http://cdn.instructables.com/FMN/AFLR/FYTCLVIE/FMNAFLRFYTCLVIE.LARGE.jpg)
(http://cdn.instructables.com/FOP/IHMA/FYTCHLCD/FOPIHMAFYTCHLCD.LARGE.jpg)
The edge of the bottle needs to be rolled back on itself 2 times this tuck the
sharp edge under the second roll and away from contact during sipping.
Start to flare the edge of the bottle. A 1" diameter wooden dowel works well.
Start by placing the dowel in the bottle so it is resting on the bottom. Rotate the
dowel around the edge of the bottle.
6 di 22
Use a "stirring" motion as you press the dowel outward against the bottle's edge.
18/02/2015 14:14

Gradually pull the dowel up off the bottom of the bottle while stirring to increase
the angle of the bend.
Step 4: Rolling the Edge
(http://cdn.instructables.com/FIJ/QO8A/FYTCLVIF/FIJQO8AFYTCLVIF.LARGE.jpg)
(http://cdn.instructables.com/FHI/P0ER/FYTCLVIL/FHIP0ERFYTCLVIL.LARGE.jpg)
Flare the bottle with the dowel until the bottle has a flange as shown.
At this point, place the bottle on a flat surface. A soft wood surface works well.
The bottle will slightly press into the soft wood giving it some grip. This helps
keep the bottle from slipping while rolling.
Tilt the bottle it so that only a portion of the edge is in contact with the wood.
Press down on the bottle and rock it in a circular motion; keeping only a small
portion of (http://cdn.instructables.com/FGW/GP0R/FYTCLVIG/FGWGP0RFYTCLVIG.LARGE.jpg)
the edge in contact with the wood at any given time.
The second photo shows the rolling in a sequence of pictures
Do not try to do all the bending in one rotation.
Gradually increase the downward pressure on the bottle as you roll it around
7 di 22
several times. You want a nice controlled edge without any kinks or variation in
flange length.
18/02/2015 14:14

The third photo shows the flange after rolling
Step 5: Increase the Roll Angle
(http://cdn.instructables.com/F5E/9T39/FZG4366M/F5E9T39FZG4366M.LARGE.jpg)

18/02/2015 14:14
(http://cdn.instructables.com/F2D/3XJY/FZHL9SPQ/F2D3XJYFZHL9SPQ.LARGE.jpg)
As the Flange starts to roll back on itself, gradually increase the angle of the
bottle slant while continuing to rock the bottle around
Eventually you will be rolling the bottle almost on its side to get the cut edge of
the flange as close to the bottle's side wall as possible.
Step 6: Closing the Edge

(http://cdn.instructables.com/FPF/FKSW/FZG4366O/FPFFKSWFZG4366O.LARGE.jpg)

18/02/2015 14:14
(http://cdn.instructables.com/FE2/QTSF/FYTCHLCH/FE2QTSFFYTCHLCH.LARGE.jpg)
Use the wooden dowel to finish working the cut edge of the flange against the
bottle side wall.
The edge needs to be "tucked in" for the start of the next roll. The goal is to not
collapse the cross section of the rim with a hard crease. The edge wants to curl
inward.
Step 7: Second Roll

18/02/2015 14:14
(http://cdn.instructables.com/F4X/I2TW/FZG4366L/F4XI2TWFZG4366L.LARGE.jpg)
(http://cdn.instructables.com/FL7/HQ5N/FYTCLVIM/FL7HQ5NFYTCLVIM.LARGE.jpg)
Start to flare the rim for the second roll.

Use the dowel to flare the rim just like for the first roll. Then rock the cup on a flat
surface just like before.
Be careful that the first fold does not coming unrolled as you start the second
flare and roll.
The cut edge needs to be tucked into the second roll.
(http://cdn.instructables.com/F30/CPJC/FYTD4Y4K/F30CPJCFYTD4Y4K.LARGE.jpg)
Reference the second picture.
Step 8: Finish

(http://cdn.instructables.com/F36/EKLY/FZHL9SSL/F36EKLYFZHL9SSL.LARGE.jpg)
Again use the dowel to finish pressing the second roll tight against the can.
Adding just the start of a third flare, will help to close the gap between the
sidewall and the second roll.
Stretch the rim by placing the dowel in the bottle and repeat the stirring motion.
This will bring the rim back from any "out of round" bending that might have
occurred.
(http://cdn.instructables.com/FID/POWG/FYTCHLCL/FIDPOWGFYTCHLCL.LARGE.jpg)
The stretching
also increases the "hoop tension" on the rolled rim to finish
pulling it tight against the side wall.
The photos show the finished product with a tight fitting rim.
Step 9: Ready to use

(http://cdn.instructables.com/FQ3/UWR5/FYTD4Y4H/FQ3UWR5FYTD4Y4H.LARGE.jpg)
You now have an aluminum Tumbler cup. Just fill it with your favorite beverage.
The heavier wall thickness of aluminum bottles adds just the right amount of heft
to the feel.
The finished Tumbler won't crush or have that "oil can" flex like aluminum cans.
They feel, and look like any other tumblers you could use and store in your
cupboard.
Go ahead, make a whole dinner service worth of them!

Having wanted the bottles for awhile to make the various Ible goodies, I

Bought a case for our anniversary BBQ and just told everyone to put
the bottles back into the box when they were empty.
Still got a bottle sitting in my fridge waiting for someone with different

Venom are one of my preferred crafting bottles as well. The resealable

is a huge plus. And they aren't as narrow as the beer bottles.
(/member top
/Grey_Wolfe/)
However the bottle is not nearly as sturdy as the Bud and Coke bottles.
Also, and this is my main reason for seeking out other sources than
Venom, they do not have a bottom shape that allows them to be used
effectively as a die.

What kind of lining is in the aluminum bottle? Doctors and food safety
specialists often say not to store food or beverages in opened aluminum
containers, or re-use the containers because the aluminum may leach out.
Aluminum consumption is linked to Alzheimer's Disease. However, if the bottle
has a protective lining, it should be ok to re-use.

hpstoutharrow , I think your instruckable is fantastic. I made the

it works great. I have a question though, when I try to roll the
edge of the tumbler, I get to the point when you work it on the wood, the lip is
beveled out flat and when I start the rolling over process on the first roll I
constantly get a crack . Im having trouble getting the first roll to lay flat against
the can. Ive tried so much my fiance is beginging to think Im an Alcoholic.
Lol Am I putting too much pressure? Going to fast? If you could enlighten me
that would be great. Im sure your an expert and these are just amature
mistakes but I would really like a tumbler set lol.

A few split when I first started. I hope something

(/member here helps:
/hpstoutharrow/)
1. Make sure the cut edge is free of saw nicks,
burrs, and file marks. There should be no edge
imperfections that could initiate a crack.
2. The cut edge should be flat. After any cutting or
de-burr filing turn the edge on emery cloth placed
on a flat surface. Removing material this way
eliminates high spots on the edge and ensures the
edge has a full wall stock thickness.
(see the first photo below)
3. When the flare is started make sure the edge is
not too wide.
4. When rocking the bottle on the wood to roll the
edge, do it gradually and evenly. It will take a
number of turns. Periodically stop and examine the
edge to make sure it is rolling evenly. Adjust
downward pressure accordingly.
5. Make sure the bottle stays round while rocking
the bottle do not apply so much downward force

occasionally and use the dowel or push bottle over the neck end of another
bottle or use a PVC pipe connector (photo 2 below) to "stretch" the edge

Ah gee, looking at your pics. I guess I can't add

(/member much useful as I too figured out to use the PVC
/TheLimbReaper/)
collars also. I can suggest to use the shortened
bottom of a "cottle" and a leather mallet to help
form an "inside" rolled lip. This works especially
well if the bottle bottom is streached first. Also
some single use propane cylinders (Worthington
brand) when cut open (extreme caution warning: Be
certain cylinder is completely empty before cutting
open) have a dished bottom wish is handy in
forming an internal bead. The "forming" can bottom
must have a small hole drilled in it to avoid a
vaccum. I hope that's helpful to somebody.
I wouldn't get too excited about posting the "beer bottle" stove since most
know what beer is. I do have to agree with the comments against using
the cans as the primary cooking vessel as they certainly are lined (at least the
soda cans). With that said; I have thrown caution to the wind and made a
coffee percolator from Bud bottles myself.

I wouldn't use one of these to cook anything in. They are usually lined with

using another bottle as a pot is a neat concept. However, it seems

the flames racing up the sides your losing at least half
your heat to the surrounding system rather then transfering it to
your desired heat reservoir (your pot). If having better efficiency is
not an issue, then using the bottle as a pot is great. If better
efficiency is an issue, then I'd recommend a pot with a larger base,
twice the diameter of the heat source is usually recommended for
gas camp stoves. your pot design is still the best I've seen here on
instructcables!
