I don't remember seeing it but is not this material avaliable?
the idea being to use as stringers on an smaller (1/300-1/400) model useing the method normaly applyed with balsa wood. (IE formers and stringers)
I find plastic to be much better behaved than any wood. expecially with small tight turns involved...
I am just thinking out-loud (out-typing?)
this model would then be coated with monokote.
the triangle cross section would give an small contact with the skin.

any thoughts ideas?...
