The description says it's galvanized tin, and what looks like copper
screws. I'd like to do something similar in either copper, tin, or
brass. Any suggestion on where to get this type of metal banding and
screws? Doesn't have to be exact, I'm open to some modificatinos.
Just not sure where to get this type of material.

Thanks
Chris


The notion that someone might pay $115 for something like this contains
some sort of lesson for me. I might have wondered if I was asking too
much at $35.

'Course, I looked at a regular shirt at JCP yesterday and it was marked
$65. When I saw some short-sleeved ones for $11, that made me feel a
little better. I don't go shoppin' for clothes very often. It's
"sucker-beware" out there!
