Sheet tin or copper is easy to shape, easy to cut (with tin snips),
cheap, and can be soldered.  I made some nice templates using sheet tin
cut from some galvanized serving trays which cost only $0.50 each.
In the old days, you could use a tin can, but that was a long
time ago.

A local dealer in scrap metals would be a better source if you need larger
quantity.
