Ha Ha .... I have a break press that I built a few years ago for a different project.

I can make the end caps out of metal but I can't put a flange bend on all 4 sides, only 2 opposite sides. I could put flanges on the sides but then you wouldn't be able to attach it on the top and bottom. Let me play around with this and try to figure out the ideal end caps.

The aluminum isn't much more than steel, aluminum prices are down right now. Have you tried selling cans lately? They don't want to give you much for them.
