Actually, that's very nearly the solution I'd come to, except mine ends up with a hollow, honeycombed part with just a couple of holes to keep air expansion/contraction from being an issue. I'd actually expect the result to actually be more stable than a standard injection-molded piece, given the number of plastic kits I've gotten with a greater or lesser degree of warping right out of the box. A 45 degree overhang can do a lot when you have a bunch of flat cells side by side after all.
