metal sheet?
I'm looking for metal sheet like the stuff they make photoetched parts out of. The thinnest aluminium sheet I've seen is around 1 mm... I need something in the 0.2 mm range. Where can I get this sort of plated nickel sheet?

Hi,
thin sheets of aluminium are used for offset-printing. Try a search this way. It's what I used to do the roof of my trailer. Take a look It's very easy to cut and you have lots of possibilities with it. Deedlit |

Central Hobby PLus at Centrepoint has some very thin brass and aluminium sheets, but beware of the high price.
Or maybe u would want to use a soft drink can, but got to do a lot of preparation work.
