I think that is some thin brass plate material he found at a local supplier. Try PM'ing him I am sure he will answer. C

That is brass. I think it is 0.01” thick, but I cannot remember for certain. Brass is much harder than copper, so it will hold its shape, and it still solders well if you use flux.

I don’t frequent many online forums anymore, so sending me a PM will likely not get you any answer quickly. However, if anyone ever has a question for me, they are more than welcome to shoot me an email.

I check my email several times a day both at home and at work. Many weekends I don’t get around too it, but with the onset of winter, I will probably be around plenty.
