Copper strap...



I recently got some (3) mil (I think) by 1.5" copper foil.  I was trying to 
figure out about what AWG number this would correspond to on Fr. Tom's 
wirelist.  3mils * 1500mils gives 4500 mils.  Divide by pi, take sqrt, 
multiply by 2, I get 75.6mils diameter for an equivalent circular area.  
Look on the wirelist I see between 12 and 13AWG.  Is this right?  This stuff 
seems much more capable than that. Maybe I am remembering the thickness 
incorrectly...
