How to form aluminum flashing (in strips) to a form?

I'm trying to make cookie cutters, and I've made a form by tracing the pattern onto a piece of wood and driving nails into the wood around the outlineI now want to bend strips of aluminum flashing around the formIs there a way I can do this with heat? If I clamp the flashing to the nails, heat it, and then cool it, will the aluminum keep the shape of the form?

Answer:

Cool story, broPosting anonymously somewhat spoils the effect, thoughNobody would run cat7 under (salt) water - a single fiberoptic line would offer a higher bandwidth (if needed) and be less susceptible to environmental influenceMaybe ask the FBI about that house of yours - or the sellerP.S.: And cat7 (or any other TP cable, for that matter) is limited to ~100 meters (328 feet) for a single run between two routers (usually assumed for 300 feet of horizontal run and 28 feet of cabling reserve), so it would have been quite easy to follow up the cable to its termination point.
Nice piece of fiction - all of that should have been found by the Inspector you hired before buying and it sounds like a grow site, if not for weed then for hydroponics - attic piping can leak.
you should be able to this rather easily, i would start by just bending the metal by handif it is too thick for you to bend by hand do you have access to a visethe length of the metal will change a little in the bend so don't measure the length first, just one bend at a timeheating and cooling won't have much effectjust one bend after another should sufficei have a metal punch that i would use to make a hole or two at the end and then pop rivet them together,(the ends)
