I would make a cone using 26 gauge steel only. Aluminum is not strong enough to handle the weight of a turkey. Personally I've never made a kill cone for turkey but I'd make it 24 inches tall, 7 inches for bottom opening and 16 inches for the top. That would mean making a pattern 24 inches tall, 24 inches on the narrow side and 52 inches on the long side. You'll probably need 5 rivets for it instead of 3 like with the broiler cone.
