I ran a bare steel wire around the entire helix and stapled it to each segment of the foil. Then I gave each staple a few taps with a hammer to make sure there was good contact.

 

If you had large areas of unbroken foil, take a short screw and make your own terminal. It's not like you are trying to conduct a lot of voltage or current with this.

I have used heating/AC ducting tape, on 2 different layouts with great success.

- its cheap

- its actually aluminum with an adhesive backing, same width as track

- attach wire with a ring terminal and screw through tape to bench top

- where segment overlap, or relief cuts for curves, fold tape edge over and continue with continuity.  (keeping shiny edge touching each other.)
