No, seems my post wasn't clear enough.
About the beltplates, I use .5mm, which seems appropriate and historically acurate. The same thickness I used for the kind of work shown in this topic (although my plates doesn't look that nice, but yeah, it's already 2 years ago I did them).
Now, I'm using .03mm for repousse stuff. And this stuff is easily to work with, also to make such a plate (as long as it gets supported in the end product. So I guess I gonna give it a try some day soon. And that .03mm is the foil I'm talking about and thus used for these plates.
