pringles can would work okay for 5ghz but making feed element for that band would be hard without expensive test equipment

NanoVNA's are pretty cheap for ~$100-200, though that being said I've only looked at them for ~1GHz work

some variants go above 2.4GHz but going over 5GHz is entirely different thing
