Buy some 40mm PSE and rip it down the length with a circular saw with the blade set at an angle. Quick lick with a belt sander once done to remove any blade marks?
Local woodyard will rip you lenghts of it for a nominal fee?
Make it, or have it made.
_Don't_ rip it down by chopping something in half. There's a real risk of getting harpooned!
Instead take a wide strip that's wide enough to work with safely, and rip triangular strips of the edge of it. Run the wide stock against the fence, using a push-stick. Yes, you'll need to re-adjust the blade tilt twice for each strip.
Assuming the OP has a table saw :-)
