copper foil question

[Fritz6]

The foil I'm using doesn't have conductive adhesive. But when I connect the different sections with the multimeter probes, I get continuity beeps. Since I'm getting a continuity reading, do I still have to solder the sections together?

Thanks for any help!

Soldering them together would assure you that they're continuous, and you'd probably have less problems later on. I think you should go for it so you don't have to fix anything later.

yeah, solder 'em together just so you have that reassurance that it's there.

Or just bend over the corner, so that the top of 1 sheet sits on the top of the other.

Yeah, better safe than sorry.

Thanks guys!
