Re: Bending alluminum for horseshoe shooter

In 2012 we wanted to make a curved shooter. We took a sheet of aluminum and held it against a trash can and hammered it around it. It didn't work and we ended up not using it, but that's probably because we used a fairly thick sheet (about 2mm. Well not exactly thick, but way thicker than you need). If you use a thinner sheet it would probably work well.
