    Seems like you would want to use stainless steel instead of aluminum if you’re going for weight.

    Edit: Yes I realize there are better conductors of heat but for the sake of using corrosion resistant welding materials I went with stainless.

      If weight is the only thing you care about, then sure. The only problem is even normal weighted blankets can be an absolute furnace in the summer.

          This is what I’m talking about. Make sure you insulate it with stainless steel though. It’s in the insulation section at your local hardware store.
