What's happened is as I've made the cut it's deformed the shape of the can and I cant get the end piece back in and I've rippled the end trying to force it in. I'm sure if I cut ann extra few cm's off It can be rescued. Just that I don't think I have the ability to do it being a ham fisted oaf that I am  |
Its common i think Dan for the middle to be a slightly different shape to the ends anyway Dan so dont worry.
Did you put a wooden piece in the inside as you cut it to stop it deforming?
If you wanted to slightly flare the end to get the end cap on, you could make or use wooden former inside but taper the edge by a few degress, then tap it in, this should give you a few extra mm's hopefully.
