    Copper Wire Mesh

    What would the price usually be on a copper wire mesh material? Something like seen in cabinets or window screens - along the lines of a 14 x 14 wire mesh seen here: Custom Wire Cloth - Belleville Wire Cloth Co - Cedar Grove, NJ -



    Would you still go by purely weight - or is there another market in which I can possibly go and sell this stuff for an actual end use? Weight is so light - its almost not worth it.... very thin gauge on the wire and fine mesh.

    Depending on the amount you have selling it retail would be far better. Arts and crafts. I once assisted a guy building a 55' pleasue boat in his yard. Defiantly a cruising boat. He embedded copper screen in the cabin roof to be used as a ground(counter pose) for his HF radio. No doubt many other uses so check out eBay and even YouTube for potential markets for the screen and other items you are going to run across. 73, Mike

    Sell on eBay as Farady Cage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage material. Kim Jong what's his face could pop a nuke over Nebraska any day now.
