I think you can also take a gallon fruit tin and cut it down to 2 inches - leaving a strip that goes all the way up- smooth the cut edge by bending down and then bend the strip down for a handle. I wonder if searching thru the grocery store would yield something better? Too thin and the thing will disintergrate in flames- We have all seen aluminum soda cans virtually disapear in flames and I have melted a pan while cooking when the the wind made the fire into a forge.
