cutting thin copper sheet

I have a project that entails cutting thin copper sheeting.There are small radii, too small and tight for snips.I was thinking about using 2 pcs of plywood to sandwichthe copper with.Has anyone had experience cutting it this way ?Is there a metal cutting blade for a scroll saw ?

If you go with the scroll saw wood blade, and don't sandwich the top don't use a blade with reverse teeth. regards John

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ THANKS TO ALL WHO RESPONDED WITH IDEAS ON CUTTING THIN SHEETS OF COPPER. The sheets are .025 thick. . . I found a source for metal cutting blades. May go with that. This is a great forum. Just when you think you have seen and done it all, someone comes along with a new idea and way of doing things. Smitty
