"8 MBK Kites To Make -
The Complete Dowel Series"

For DIY Satisfaction And Flying Fun With Big Kites!
Teachers, Use This Step-by-Step Resource
To Keep Everything Dirt Cheap!

Hi! I'm Tim Parish, a 'kite nut' who has researched many types of kites for this website. And made quite a few of my own, of course! I have personally tested and refined the 8 designs in this eBook. So you can be sure they will all fly well.

Dowel Sode Kite

This complete downloadable resource guides you through the process of making kites with others. Staying under-budget is a breeze since only the cheapest of materials and the simplest of tools are used. Also, the impressive size and sheer performance of these kites represents great value for money. The eBook's diverse collection of single-line designs cater to a variety of skill levels and tastes.

Whether you are a school teacher or kite-making workshop leader, it doesn't matter. Share the Do-It-Yourself satisfaction and excitement of the group when you all go out to fly for the first time!


Cheap Materials Keep Costs Way Down

With such cheap materials, cost blow-outs or wastage is not a concern. That's less stress for you! People signing up at the last minute would only cost you a few extra dollars for the materials.

After everyone has flown their kite and gone home, they know they can afford to make more kites in their own time. This includes you of course! Perhaps a more challenging and interesting kite next time... Besides the low costs, there's also the convenience because the materials are so easily obtained.

Looking back, you will be pleased because everyone enjoyed themselves and had so much success. The activity was worthwhile for them. For you, there's more than just flying fun... How about the personal satisfaction of running a successful workshop!


Most Of The Tools Are Already Lying Around Somewhere!

Hence, you are saving time getting this aspect of the project ready to go! No need to beg or borrow fancy tools, let alone buy any. You don't need more time pressure in your day.

The tools are very cheap, if you do have to buy 1 or 2. If they are not at hand already, it's easy to find something like a pair of scissors in a store. In fact, a supermarket would probably have everything except the hack-saw. Most items would be easy to borrow if required.

Again, this is all good for your stress levels!


Even The Knot-Tying Is Explained, Step-by-Step

Ever seen a particular knot's name, but have had no idea how to tie it? This eBook takes you through every knot required. Each step-by-step photo has a helpful caption.

So, no need to waste time chasing up information on knot-tying. There's enough to do already, getting prepared for a kite-making workshop! Instead, just print off the Appendix on Knots separately. Just 1 or 2 copies to hand around should be sufficient.


Let The Table Of Contents Save You Money

Identify just the pages you require and no more, by refering to the detailed TOC (Table of Contents). Then print a set of Step-by-Step instructions for just the selected kite. Forget the other 7! That saves a lot of paper and ink.

Also, you probably don't need every group member to have a copy of every Appendix! Print each one off just once or twice and share them around.

So, if you're paying for photo-copying, you can plan ahead and make some savings! Get the warm feeling that you have pulled the whole thing off at the minimum possible cost.


Make Your Own Winders To Save Even More!

There is no need to buy heaps of winders! Another Appendix takes you through making your own simple winder. Not only do you save on costs, but these sturdy winders are designed for easy handling and quick let-out of flying line. Also, the line can be removed completely if desired. For example, to stack that kite behind another one, in an impressive kite train!

The same Appendix also shows a neat way of knowing how much line you have let out. This is interesting and useful information! For example, use simple geometry to figure out how high everyone's kites are flying.

You might find other uses too, like how much line is a safe length for a particular park or flying field. Or perhaps your country has regulations regarding how high you can fly.

Once everyone has made themselves a winder, they are all set for future workshops too!


It Keeps Getting Easier, With All Kites Made The Same Way!

Just about all the techniques, materials and tools that are required, are present in every kite. Hence, you've learnt all you need to know after making just one of them. That's not much of a learning curve!

The building steps for the more interesting kites just take a little more time. They don't seem so daunting after completing some of the simpler kites.

Making these Dowel kites gets quicker and easier all the time. You get more familiar and skilled with the processes. This can only mean less time between starting a new kite and getting out on the field to fly it!


All The Detail You Could Possibly Want - Never Get Stumped!

The eBook contains so much detail! You or any of your kite-making group are unlikely to get stumped at any point. Of course, it's also easy to skip detail that you don't need. Good quality photos, and plenty of them, are used at every stage.

The step-by-step instructions are complete so you know you will end up with a kite which flies successfully!

A sail template graphic for each kite clearly shows the shape and dimensions. The instructions help you to achieve perfect left-to-right symmetry. Nothing is more satisfying than a kite which always flies stable. Ensuring symmetry sure gets the kite off to a great start!

The close-up photos of the kite in flight help to inspire the group. It's fun to work with a bunch of enthusiastic budding kite-makers!

Also, an in-flight close-up is a good final check. Compare the photo with your completed kite that is about to take its first flight.


Inspire The Group With Real-Life Flight Stories!

There's an actual flight report included in the eBook, for each of the 8 kites. Read this out to your budding kite-makers. Or give them a copy to hand around and read. It will really help to enthuse and inspire!

It's easier to conduct a workshop when everyone is enjoying themselves and really looking forward to the end result!


Imperial Or Metric Measurements, It's Your Choice

Do you like to work in inches or millimeters? In fact, this eBook lists every reference to a length in 3 ways...

  • Imperial (U.S.)
  • Metric (non-U.S. generally)
  • Dowel Lengths (Generic - handy for scaling up)

1.0DL (Dowel Length) can be anything you like, as long as the dowel has about the right stiffness and strength. Some people prefer to work this way so they can scale my designs up to even bigger kites!


Big Is Beautiful So Kite-Fliers And Onlookers Are All Smiles!

These kites are an impressive size, so you won't be seen as flying 'little kid's kites'. In fact, don't be surprised if you sometimes impress a few onlookers. Watch them pull up and gawk! Particularly if you are flying something that is not as well-known as a Diamond or Delta.

Think about it. You've made something worthwhile, and you get to share the enjoyment around!


So Easy To Carry Or Store - Just Roll 'Em Up!

These kites are easily transportable by car. That's because they are all designed to break down into a long slim package. With just a little thought, the kites could be transported by bicycle or back-pack too. You and your kite-making group can take them anywhere!

Not only that, but the kites take up very little space around the home. The kites are resistant to damage when rolled up. The whole Dowel Series can stand in the corner of a bedroom, taking no more space than a golf bag!

Why not go for a fly on the way home from shopping? I do, when my wife lets me! If you're on your own, you can stop for a fly any time.
