Default Re: Lead sheets, what thickness?

The lead I get is more like 1/16in. You can get it at roofing supply or non-ferous metals supply.
Bigger won't hurt. I ran a 6in wide strip ever the edge and down the side, accross the bottom and up the other side. I actually slit it down the middle and folded it outward so that when it meets the bottom, it splits out to each side, accross the bottom at the outside corners, then back together again when it goes up the sides.
