What is the easiest type of spark strip to construct?

Where is it possible to get some copper clad curcuit board?

Lol really you can just get some curcuit board and put a few solder beads about 1cm apart or so then connect one wire from your ignition source to one side of the strip and the other wire to the other side and bam.
