One other thought. Aluminum can be spun and shaped. When I was in shop in high school we used to spin aluminum disks into glasses and bowls. I could take a small dull 1/8" drill and drill through the tube wall. The dull drill building up heat and force would force a dimple of aluminum locking both walls together.
