Vertical Visuals Mirage Kite Workshop Pics

These are pictures from the Vertical Visuals Mirage Kite Workshop with the Ohio Society for the Elevation of Kites (OSEK) kite club in Cleveland, Ohio.

This was the first time this kite was attempted in a workshop. Participants were told they were 'beta testers'.
If they had major problems, this kite would never see the light of day as a workshop again.

Everybody finished.
Early.

Typical workshop scene.	Tom and Gary discuss tension line options.	Tom adds tension lines to his kite.

Don Teeter places his final wing half.	Cheryl Kear adds tension lines.	Tom with finished kite.

Brian does tension lines while Don does frame.	As kites are done it's time to socialize.	Frank and Betty Terepka frame Frank's kite.

Nancy Lockwood was the first one finished. Notice the time on the clock. Harry helped.	They took it out and flew it. No, it's not in the tree!	Less than 6 hours, start to finish.
