Salt flakes

I have found a few recipes that call for salt flakes but it is hard to come by in my area. I was wondering if I could make my own from brine to obtain the proper texture. Has anyone done this?

    Fourthing Maldon. Love the smoked flakes, too.

      Thirding Maldon, the stuff is great and easy to get.

        It would be a WHOLE lot easier to just order Maldon: http://www.amazon.com/Maldon-Sea-Salt...

          I have not but I have ordered Maldon flakes from Amazon. They are very reliable and the price is great. Now my Whole Foods has it more reliably though I think it is cheaper on Amazon!
