For culinary purposes, I wish to make a heat diffuser for my gas hob.
For low heat simmering, gas is not ideal; you need a head diffuser, or (very) thick soled pan to work well.
My cunning plan is to make a copper hotplate; a rather simple piece of fabrication, comprising a copper disc (slab!) around 6-8mm thick, and around 7-8 inches diameter.
Can anyone advise on the feasibility of this, and also indicate where I could the material, and any guessed as to cost?
Of course this project is trivial enough that a should a copper rod of adequate diameter be available, a machine cut slice of stock is the finished item...
