*Walks up with his home-made green garbage bag kite. Puts kite on ground and walks backwards, unwinding string.*
Can someone toss my kite into the air for me, please.

Oh, I can't do that kind of thing at all -- can't assemble dresses from patterns, can't follow those diagrams for putting together particle board furniture...

Penguin Girl - returned at last Posted May 4, 2000
Oooh, I remembr my last particle board experience...I still keep scratching my shoulders on it by accident. Does anyone know how to assemble a kite? Is there a guide entry on it?

*shazz joins in the fun and waves to one and all*
Here is a quick run-down on Kite construction You need to put your struts into the shape of a cross, then stretch your paper/material over it and tie it securely at all four corners Put some string along from all the corners also, and then attach a really long piece to the point where the strings cross That is a very basic kite design, but it should work
