Any idea what this is? Right. It is copper. Brand new shiny copper sheeting. I bought a bunch of it to use for flashing around the new chimney on the roof. I had no idea how gorgeous it is as a material. The shine, the color - it is stunning. And it is really easy to work with. When you bend it, it bends easily, and stays in the position you bend it in. I have had to make two assemblies made from three pieces each, all soldered together with an acetylene torch. The down side - it's expensive, at about $5.50 a foot in the 8" wide roll. I just set this small circle of copper on a board, on top of a garbage can to photograph it in the driveway.
