    Saturday is finally upon us more buffing/staining/sanding fun ahead of me today

    Question can i use aluminumbtape to shield the cavities? Copper tape is pretty spensive and i can get my hands on aluminum tape for free at work.

    Yes, you can use Aluminium Tape for shielding, although you cannot solder to it like you can to copper, the way around that is to use a small woodscrew with a washer to attach the bared end of the ground wire to it.

    I wasn't even aware the tape needs to be grounded
