Description
I made kites commercially back in the 90's. I have kept a large stock of supplies thinking I would get back to making them, but I am not as physically able as I once was (I am okay, but you won't see my climbing up Jockey's Ridge to test out new designs!).
This is offered as an all or nothing "you pickup" lot for $400 (it is dirt cheap and intended for the person that is an up and coming maker and would love to stumble on everything needed).
Included are yards and yards and yards of fabric, mostly Bainbradge.
Rods from Left to right: Larger glasspar rods (Ferrules for larger projects or cross spreaders for larger kites, I used them as cross pieces for large Rokakus), long custom extruded carbon rods 8' long (again, I used these for large single line kites), large selection of glasspar smaller rods (I used these for ferrule making), large collection of Avia sport micro carbon extrusions (used for micro light kites and for stand-offs) large stack of Avia Sport extruded in 1800/2200 and some other sizes, small selection of GForce rods.
Fittings: Large collection of APA fittings, end caps and rod ends.
Misc: Bag material, leading edge material in dacron and ripstop (webbing shown in initial image is not included). Top right of first image (can't post more).
Plus not shown is a pile of misc items.
So, sold as a lot, you pickup in Rocky Mount Virginia. I don't plan on counting each fitting, but you are welcome to come look and I may give you a beer and share stories!
You can email me at james@kites.org (going to sell the domain as well eventually).
