Hi all,

Since it's a miniature, I won't need the standard 16-gauge
used for armour-making -- rather, something
about as thick as cardboard, or a little thicker than the sheet
used in tin cans.

Yeah, that sounds about right. (?!?!?!)

There's probably a model-making group or something that would have
better info, but I'd say 22-ga would be a reasonable place to start.
I have no idea what thickness of cardboard you are thining of, though.
