20" x 8" (like 5-6 pieces) ---1/16"
20" x 8" (like 2 pieces) ---1/8"
Sizes can be bigger or can be cut in half. Please post what you have.

They may have what ya need. I had to glue multiple sheets together with thin CA, to get the width I needed for wingskins. True up the edges first, butt the sheets together on some wax paper, use very little CA on the seam, lightly sand it after the CA sets, and your done.
