[QUOTE="Walt Jaquith, post: 426390, member: 18654"] If you can get hold of the maintenance manager for a big plant nursery or produce processor they might have worn out lengths of conveyor belt that you could practice on. Might even have some chunks of new stuff from shortening belts and such. Anyone who uses conveyor belts might be able to help you. they wouldn't be quite as stiff as the mudflaps, but maybe good enough. 'nuther odd idea: Back in the 50s they used to take canvas and paint it; just soak it in paint and let it dry. They called it the poor man's fiberglass, and I guess it was nigh on indestructible. You could get a pretty good shape with something like that. Haven't actually tried it, but I've always wanted to... [/QUOTE]
