Do you wish to use aluminum with wood? Well... that's great and all, but it's kind of not a good idea. I'll tell you why.
If you are making a project out of aluminum (I used aluminim pan), use plastic (or plastic cups) to attatch to the aluminum. Wood is not a good idea to use as far as aluminum pan or aluminum in gereral because it pops right off!
No matter how many times you glue it in order to make it stay, it just will not do it. I have even tried using plastic to see if the wood will stay better. It came out with the same result.
At first, it will trick you into thinking that it's working (either with plastic or without plastic) and then if you bent it a certain way... POP!
So, it was a great idea, but it somewhat went in the wrong direction. One more thing, if you plan on painting the aluminum, make sure that you test out the paint on a small or medium size piece of aluminum and wait for a couple of hours to see if it will chip off or not. Afterwards, glue on a piece of plastic or whatever material that you wish to work with. If the paint automatically comes off, then either try to work with it as best you know how or try a different material.
Well... I hope this helps
