8 MBK Kites To Make - The Complete 1-Skewer Series

Classics In Skewers & Plastic

This PDF eBook is a collection of useful information for making and flying 8 different kinds of small single-line kites. There's one for just about any wind speed from very light to very fresh.

The eBook can be read off a computer screen, but is designed to be printed off and put in a cover as a handy kite-making reference. Perhaps it could even be the perfect birthday or Christmas gift for a kite-mad friend.

The term '1-Skewer' refers to the fact that the basic 'building block' of these kites is a single bamboo BBQ skewer. Also, except for the Delta, all the designs have a wing-span of just 1 skewer's length! A common size for these skewers is 29 c.m., or about 1 foot. At this size, it's no problem to find some space on a table somewhere to start construction.

These MBK kites require minimal tools: just a ruler, marking pen and scissors!

Also, the materials are dirt-cheap: sticky tape, bamboo skewers, wood glue and plastic bags!

Here's what a recent customer had to say:

"... Really loved making the sled and the diamond ... Thanks for this great resource!" - S.T., Virginia, U.S.A.

The eBook is a selection and compilation of information from the My Best Kite website, drawn from 3 areas:

• plans and tips from the Kite Plans pages
• detailed instructions from the How To Make A Kite pages, complete with all photos
• selected blog posts from the Kite Flying Blog, which describes some actual flying experiences with each kite!

Get ready to have some building and flying fun!

ALSO:

There is a previously unpublished photo of each kite in flight, and ...

For many of the kites, there is a hyperlink back to a 20 second movie of the kite in flight! See what your creation will actually look like, moving about in the air.
