Materials:

Step 3: Use mallet in image 5 to change the flat aluminum to blister shape. Wooden mallet is supposed to be used in this step because the aluminum is very fragile, we need to be careful when doing this step.









For the edge of the blister, it is supposed to have a wood bar aiming at the curve of the blister and then use mallet to hit the wooden bar. This helps with dealing with the edge of the blister because the wooden mallet is too big to dive in.
