    giant roll of aluminum foil

    Okay I am going to try this again but with a link to the image since the picture is to big. While I was cleaning out the old barn at the family farm I found a giant roll of aluminum foil. It is at lest 150 pound. I was wondering what the yards would take this as.

    my yard would give me sheet or old sheet, assuming its as thin as most foil... if it were thicker, i could get extrusion for it

    I would call your yard first to make shore they take it, not all yards take foil. It would be sheet,flat al. is not extruded no matter how thick

    I would love to have that roll just to have it. I could pursue the worlds record for largest pile of grilled potatoes and onions.
