mouth plate help

[jpink]

does anyone have a brilliant idea slash suggestion for a mouth plate? we are building a cheshire cat puppet for a production of alice we are doing, and i need a really strong, durable material. we are looking to make the head a wire structure, so i need to be able to connect the wire to the plate in some way. i'm thinking maybe luan wood, or maybe a thin plastic?

Try DVD clam covers, they work very well and very light.....and take pictures!!!
