Ladies and Gentlemen:


I'm building a Leyden jar using good old Alcoa aluminum foil for the plates.

What's a simple way to bond sheets of aluminum foil together electrically?

I thought that Shoe Goo will be adequate to attach the foil to the sides 
of the garbage pail (Did I mention that the core of the jar is a typical 
residential trash can?).


Thanks,

Ron Hunsicker
