    Default Copper sheet supplier?

    Hello,

    I am looking into having a go at fold forming, and I can't seem to find a cheap supplier for large sheets of copper.
    Please could someone recommend a good supplier who isn't charging the earth for just one sheet?

    Thanks very much in advance,

    Dave Willis

    Smiths metal centres sell copper sheet and there will be one near you. In London there is one at Dalston Junction. http://www.smithmetal.com/copper.htm

    You could maybe also try a roofer. We are working our way through the roll we have left from copper roofing our gazebo many years ago. Having said that I've no idea what copper prices are like at the moment
