    I'm looking to make a windscreen and a DIY caldera cone. I've already got some practice with aluminum flashing but I'm looking to switch to Ti for durability and shape retention.

    Tigoat has been out of stock for a while now and I'm not coming up with much on ebay.

    I'm surprised that you didn't find anything on ebay. I usually see a lot of Ti foil on ebay. You could try Suluk46. I don't have time to check right now if they are still offering it.

    Kevin your site only lists 2 dimensions for the foil: thickness X height(assuming)…is this priced by the foot?

    @Colin (covering eBay part below) I'll give Suluk46 another look. I remember seeing them offering pre-sized windscreens but not materials or cones.
    ***doesn't look like they sell sheets/foil anymore. I'll shoot them an email later though.


    @Eric

    This is the only one that might work for me. Everything else seems too thick or not wide enough (almost everything is under 4")
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/15-3-3-3-Titanium-Foil-Sheet-005-x-6-0-x-72-0-37-/151011037070?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2328f58f8e
    For the caldera cone shape, you need extra width to fit (I'll likely need somethign like 12×18") the cone pattern.


    @Kevin
    , thanks for the site. I'll check it out when I have some time (got back from lunch and just wanted to check this quick before catching back up on work)
