How big a sheet do you need? Are you making a boiler, or just for plates etc?

Yes for a boiler. Would like it to be ~40 Litre. So rough calculations, if boiler is 300mm diameter, would need to be ~600mm height.

So sheet needs to be approx 600mm x 1000mm

Then would need extra for base, top, etc

Above a quick of the top of my head calculations. Not set on those dimensions at all. Will be dependant on copper sheet availability and cost.

Does it have to be copper? Why not look around for a 50lt beer keg. Unless of course you want to build everything yourself

Surman Metals can probably help you they sell a big range of metals there web site is http://www.surmanmetals.com/ and they are located at 5 Greenfields Drive
Green Fields 5107 South Australia. I have dealt with them a couple of times and they were very helpful.
