I've seen railway modellers suggesting using ladies' tights (panty hose to most of you,I think),stretched then painted,to simulate wire mesh fencing.
I don't know how strong they'd be - probably elastic enough to bounce cars back on to the track!
Of course, if you're not Ember, you have to be tough enough to ignore the " 'course you are, dearie" expression on the face of the checkout girl, when you mention you're buying them to make crash barriers for your slot cars . . . and the 'seen it all', "Whatever".
