What kind of tools will I need to bend the copper around the edges of the wood and secure it underneath? Will this be hard to do? What gauge should I use? About how much would it cost for a 2 feet by 8 feet sheet of copper?
Copper is big for $$$ right now. Cash in what you have and buy sheet metal. Not sure why you want metal. All our work tops are plywood. When you are drilling it will save bit tips if you hit wood instead of metal. You can screw in stops for sawing. Sorry couldnt be any help. m
All you really need is a hammer and maybe a 2x4 or straight edge to help keep it flat. You might want to use some adhesive though under the copper so it doesn't tend to pop up or make annoying popping sounds.

It is high temp silver solder and standard practice(due ti high preasures in the tubeing.
The coolant lines are copper. So they need to be soldered. I'm in construction and that's the same way its done on new construction too.
