Okay I got me some tennis elbow awhile back and while at PT they gave me some rubber kind of stretchy stuff to do forearm pulls with. This material is thin comes in different colors yellow, red, and black. As a modler when I first saw it all kinds of ideas jumped into mind. I think it would make great tarps as it folds just like material and having no grain as would putty tarps have no grain or pattern to them. I was also thinking of covers for guns and other stuff. Check this stuff out at your local Hospital Physicial Therapy room
here is a link to what it looks likehttp://www.valuemedicalsupplies.com/bands.htm
Well what do you think Jan any good??

hmmm... I never saw that stuff before, Jeff. Hard to judge by a picture. But if you can get your hands on some of that from PT, you may give it a try ? New materials always offer new ideas and techniques !
Then again, if this stuff is stretchy and remains stretchy, I have serious doubts if you could use it to model. Painting it may prove to be a nightmare, too . I'm curious about your results !
