Foam core board vs. Coroplast
Coroplast is good stuff, tough and durable, but essentially two-dimensional.
Foam core board is very light and stiff, so is used for hand made RC airplanes, etc., but off the shelf is also two-dimensional.
However, some say that by removing the paper from one side, it is much moe flexible and can be formed around gentle compound curves, perhaps like the curvature of car hoods, fenders, etc..
So, anybody here used foam core board?
Workability, formability, etc.?
What techniques, adhesives, and paints work, which do not?
Advice?
Also, Dow BlluCor is polyethelene foam, can be hot-wired to sculpt, light, and popular among RC aircraft hobbyists. Any thoughts on use of that for our purposes?
