    Just out of curiosity how thick is this Kum-Boo foil?  I ask because
    I'm interested in trying this technique ... and I've made pretty
    respectable fine Silver foil with my rolling mill.  I'm thinking
    that if it's about .004" or thicker then one could probably roll out
    24k foil oneself.  Is there something I'm not realizing here? 

Thanks,
Cheers,
