Make one for me too in colours to match my outfit! We could be a team, and the best part is we wouldn't need to practice as any mistakes we make would be considered part of the routine.

Looks great. Can't wait to see the finished product. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using KiteLife mobile app

Yes, one of the first tv series that you had to watch every episode to have a hope of knowing what was going on. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using KiteLife mobile app

some great ideas . If I'm happy with this one I might try to make an arch. This is not really an advanced SLK. bamboo, plastic and tape. Just trying my hand at kite making, as for the art, I draw just about every day and on every thing so I might as well combine the two Sent from my SM-G920W8 using KiteLife mobile app

patents are extremely complicated. I can give you an example. I used to make RC boats. We came up with several different ideas and applied for and received US and Canada patients. A rival company made and brought to market an exact copy of our design. They changed the materials in the layup of the hulls. The courts decision was this was a change of over 20% of our design so no violation of our patients. You have to cover everything possible in the wording of a patient. The best and most famous example of this is Goodyear, when they applied for a patent on the process for making rubber and products to be made of rubber they missed one product......tires!

Well the answer is yes and no. Cold doesn't bother the carbon fiber at all, however the matrix (epoxy) used to hold it together could be a different matter. Some epoxies become brittle at low temperatures. Carbon fiber gets it's strength from the very small diameter of the fibers (more fibers more strength, or less weight). In fact we have to consider carbon rods as wear items as every time they flex some of these fibers break. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using KiteLife mobile app
