For an upcoming project I need 4 sheets of very thin (about 1/32 to 1/64 thick)copper about 3 x 2 feet. I cannot seem to find any locally and online metals wants close to 200.00 for that. There is no way I can afford even ¼ of that, anyone know of anyplace to get these pieces significantly cheaper? Thanks

There was something I saw online that told how to roll copper piping into sheets, but even it wouldn't be large enoug for you. Unless you wanted to solder them together into a sheet, which could be an interesting effect..

Would probably bea lot cheaper though Can't remember where I saw it, but if you want I can try and find it.

Unfortunatly for the design i want it has to be 1 continuous sheet per piece. Thanks though

large sheets of copper are not cheap. Your best bet is to pick some up that is being sold as scrap.

You might can check a place that sells and installs gutters.
They might can sell what u need.
