Daougie Posted August 7, 2018 Report Posted August 7, 2018 Here is a picture of my kite train. About 1.5 years in the making. Each sail has it's own art work. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using KiteLife mobile app 1 Quote
dragonfish Posted August 7, 2018 Report Posted August 7, 2018 Wow! Would love to see some closeups of the artwork. I remember reading your post when you started the project. Quote
makatakam Posted August 7, 2018 Report Posted August 7, 2018 That's a lot longer than I remember it being. Good job! Quote

ACrop Posted August 9, 2018 Report Posted August 9, 2018 Beautiful work. Clearly a labor of love. I know nothing about single lines, but could they be used as a kite arch? As an arch all of the art would be closer to the ground for viewing/ enjoying?? It is so much fun to see beautiful work with that attention too detail.Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using KiteLife mobile app Quote

ACrop Posted August 9, 2018 Report Posted August 9, 2018 If I did the math right your line of kites is 180' long, which would (given a perfect of the arch, not real world conditions) put the high spot of the arch (radius) at 57' high. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using KiteLife mobile app Quote
