I've been wanting to make one for some time. The plans can be found in the Summer-Fall '93 KiteLines (Vol. 10, No. 2). Back issues are available for $4 (plus shipping) from KiteLines. You can call them at 410-922-1212. Jeff -- |Jeffrey C.

One of them now hangs in the Ontario Science Cente on permanent display. Michael Graves = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
