Subject: Building a Raaseri Kiters, I using several kites from a small dutch factory (WEPA) and thought it would be nice to build one myself. At the web I found a design for a raaseri complete with a great description and nice templates. What I want to know is: i've never built a kite before, Is it possible to build a raaseri without experience. Is there somebody beside the N@RK members who built one and can give me some good advise. Are there more of this kind building descriptions availlable ?

Usually the n@r.k members are reading r.k quite regularly as well as their private email. Why not just ask them?

Martin, As I said earlier I am looking for comments and remarks from Less experienced (no offence) Kite flyers who build a Raaseri. I want to start building but I realize that I have to read a lot (faq's) about building Kites. A lot of term I know but there are a few from wich i have problems to apply the to the raaseri plans and didn't know exectly what the purpose from these things are. So asking questions about why there are standoff's and why are there tension lines at the spine can i do later and when I know more about the theory off kiting.

I've just began building an UL-RAASERI. This will be the second one I've made (My first 'selfmade' kite was an BATKITE), so that I'd like to encourage you to start ! You're right, it is a really good description, but not only the plan - the kite itself is even better... (i've seen it on FANO, a few weeks ago) and if you have questions, why don't you ask Simo !? He his a nice guy, who will reply immediately !! (personal experience) Beside, I'm sure all the n@rk guys will do the same ! (Hi Bernhard !)
