Design KITES for different Kite FLYING Properties SKILL

Not a large book, so quality, rather than quantity.

But how very special!

I have seen several 'kite' books where, simply, you are given designs to make.

But never one like this!

YOU decide on the different flying properties for kites, and build kites for differing wind-strengths, too!

Author, Helen Bushell, grandma, potter and kite builder is an industrial designer who returned to kite craft when the family gave up sailing small
boats.

The only woman in Australia to hold a patent for a flying object, she is a rebel kite-designer who goes against the prevailing concept of a kite and
builds camber in.

She lectures with the Council for Adult Education, The National Fitness Council and The Craft Association of Victoria,
and exhibits her kites in Melbourne.

Her ambition is to help establish kite craft as a kinetic art form evocative of contemporary Australian life.

This book takes the hit and mystery out of kites.

It is a preliminary text book for students of kite design;
children of between 9 years and 90.

Probably a 'once-only' opportunity. . .
