Try your local scrap dealer... here in Silicon Valley there's several places
that would have such scrap on a catch as catch can basis.  If you're in the 
SF Bay Area, let me know and I'll send a couple of likely candidates in
the South Bay.

MSC has it.  Page 2044 in the new catalog. Up to .250 thickness.

Saw some recently at a boat supply store.  It's used on sailboats for a hull 
grounding plate.

If in the Seattle area, Alaskan Copper works carries many thicknesses,
tubes, bars; you name it. Apparently, from my dealings with them, no
quantity is too small. E-mail me back if you'd like more details?

>From  the FAQ:

   -  MSC Industrial Supply Co.
      151 Sunnyside Blvd
      Plainview, NY  11803
      (800) 645-7270, (800) 255-5067 FAX, (516) 349-0265 FAX
      http://mscdirect.com

      Their 96/97 catalog is 3555 pages, and their selection has been
      described as "dumbfounding".  They claim same-day shipping and seem
      to meet this goal.  I realize non-US callers can't phone US 800
      numbers, MSC suggests using the second FAX number above.  Also,
      their NY branch is at (516) 349-0330 if you're non-US and need to
      talk to somebody.  The catalog is free in the 50 USA states, and
      Puerto Rico and Canada.  A CD-ROM version might be available by
      mid-1997.

      Outside the US, their current (September 1996) policy is:

      *  The minimum order size for export orders is US$500
      *  Only products in stock at the time of shipment will be included on
         the order
      *  MSC will not process backorders or provide for special orders
