Where does one get Copper Sheets?

Nothing too big, just a 12" x 12" sheet x 1/8" (or 1/16")

Does Metal Supermarkets sell them? Anyone else?

What’s the cost like?

^I don’t imagine it would be cheap… Copper keeps going up.

Copper is rediculously expensive, depending on thickness expect to pay like $30-50 for that piece, I would imagine… I haven’t checked pricing recently but trust me, it’s steep. And yes, most decent sized metal suppliers should have copper or be able to get it/direct you

Technically I only need a 4" x 4" sheet but I doubt a shop would cut just that size. Figured it’d be by sq.ft…

I’ll find out this weekend I suppose

4"X4" you might have better luck with, try a roofing, or specialty shop, they might have a piece in the scrap bin they’ll let you have for relatively cheap…
