Advice on how to solder aluminum?

So I want to solder aluminum cans together for this project I have. What tools will I need?

Answer:

a soldering iron or gun. use a low melting solder. it comes in various grades. go to Menard's or Home Depot they have it.
The only way you can solder any kind of alum. is to gold plate both pieces of whatever you are trying to solder together
Your aluminum can's are unfortunatly too thin to solder. Your best bet for this project, is going to be a hot glue gun. Hope this helps.
