I just edited my post above to include the links to Ariel Salaveria's tutorials. If you all haven't already, please look at the links - especially the second one. He seems to have pretty good results with fairly low-tech inexpensive equipment.
I tend to agree with Ray and most others - the "perfect" material would have most of the characteristics of professsionally stabilized material with one exception - doesn't feel like a hunk of plastic. To my knowledege such a thing doesn't exist, but I'm convinced that someone around here will stumble on the recipe if we continue to encourage experimentation and share knowledge.
