Abstract

A method of manufacturing a metal container by attaching a body formed integral with a top cover to a bottom plate formed separately. The body and bottom plate are sealably attached together with an adhesive and by a tight curl. The tight curl is formed toward the interior of the container and not exposed outside, thus making it pleasing to the eye.
