That's a thought, though I think plywood is the best choice. A friend who builds a lot of radio controlled airplanes says he can buy 24" sq. 5-ply "craft" plywood at his local craft supply store. The one closest to me (same chain -- A C Moore) only has the 12" x 24". I can just squeak the biggest centerline section onto that size, with a few compromises.

I'm thinking I'm going to use wire and then fiberglass it.
