Where to buy copper cheaply for intaglio 9 May 2008 I was able to find copper inexpensively at a local roofing supply store. It was sold in a 3 foot by 8 foot sheet. Cutting charges are usually about a dollar a cut unless you have access to a university or college or metal fabrication shop where you can cut it yourself. You could also use a metal blade on a saber saw but it is neater and cleaner to have it cut by guillotine. An important tip: check out several roofing suppliers...I found that the price varied enormously. It always depends on the price of copper on the world market at any given time, so it depends when the supplier last bought it and also how much profit they wish to make. I bought a 3 x 8 sheet of 20 ounce for $45 last time. - Gay Malin - http://gallery.passion4art.com/members/gaymalin |
