Also try hobby stores. They have small sheets (~4"X6") of copper, brass
and aluminum that you can cut into strips. The display also has small
pieces of tubing as well. And possibly shops that specialize in model
trains.
I have found it at our local farm supply (Wilco) as well. If you have a
Cenex in your area try them too.

I have been using copper flashing from Home Depot. They will cut just
what
you need, like a 12"x12" piece. Then bring it home and make strips with
tin
snips.
