Hi Lucifer,first you start making a plywood mold the same size like the lid you want.
Take the mold and draw with a pencil about 7 millimeters more around the mold on the 2 millimeters thick aluminium.
Cut it out,and you just knock with anylon hammmer the edges around the mold.
File the edges,and make a handle.

greetings Theo
