Rolfe,

I agree with your comments ont the two T kites. The main change I was considering on the next T kite was to increase the number of panels in the luff and put a little more bull nose. Since both of my T's are now gone I will start to think of an efficient kite for the blade sixteen we are building. I think I would like to see my first try a bit fuller than "Jalani's" pictures more shaping in the luff. Wait and see I suppose.

With regard to seam tape, I use twelve mm tape on fourteen mm seams and you dont have the problem with the seam tape exposing. I also only stitch the cross and vertical seams only.
