I want something that is like foamcore board. But instead of paper on each face, I want luan or some other lightweight (1/8") wood panel. In the middle I want something like styrofoam that is light and easy to cut with a jigsaw. This product must be without voids and be easy to paint. It must come in 4 x 8' sheets, be 3/4" thick and cost no more than $40.00 a sheet.
So, DOES ANYBODY MAKE A COMPOSITE PANEL PRODUCT LIKE I AM DESCRIBING?

It weighs nothing, is strong, waterproof, easy to cut and cheap. I don't know how good it would be for making theatre sets, but for a camper it's perfect. If I were to do it again, I would forget about the wood framing and just glue it together, it is that strong.
How did you finish the edges on this. I have been thinking of using it for my new build.

Plastic from HD, packing tape, and a shop vac.
