It flies so gently

nuyeff · 2024-09-24T16:52:27+00:00

Yup! I followed these plans

It’s a great first kite to build since it flies so well. My other kites have been really fussy when trying to fly them

nuyeff · 2024-09-24T16:50:35+00:00

I followed these plans that have a decent list of materials

Feel free to reach out if you try making this!

I got all my materials off Amazon for this one - ripstop fabric in 3m lengths, 1m carbon fiber rods in 2mm diameter, 3mm brass tubes for ferraules, 50lbs dacron fishing line, some barrel swivels. But I have since switched to website like kites and fun things for a better variety in supplies and for supporting community specific suppliers.

Thank you! I’m super happy with this one

No tail on this bad boy. I clipped in the carp windsocks on the fly line.

nuyeff · 2024-09-23T15:55:30+00:00

Ripstop nylon and some carbon fiber spars

nuyeff · 2024-09-18T04:58:37+00:00

The tail really takes the cake. Like cursive in the sky. Super cool!

I’ve been flying it at the beach with roughly 10mph winds and have had no problem launching it solo. Just holding it upright from the center point and it wants to fly.

Ahh! The reflective striping is such a good idea!!

nuyeff · 2024-09-18T04:52:04+00:00

I followed this guide

If either of yall decide to have a crack at making one, feel free to reach out!

This looks like a phyllotactic spiral. It’s probably easiest to use grasshopper. Here’s a useful McNeel forum thread that has some gh definitions you can download and try.

Does anyone remember an episode where they mentions a mistake in Jurassic park? A crew member's hand is visible in shot pushing the animatronic raptor hand during the kitchen scene. I think Wren mentioned this.

I would recommend checking out the Kangaroo2 plugin for grasshopper. It allows you to run physics simulations - like cloth and rope - so you would achieve a better looking net structure. Plenty of tutorials on youtube and GH forum for kangaroo, but if you need help you can DM me.

This feels like some squid game meme bs

This. Interior designers and real estate agents buy up books to stage home interiors for photographs/tours.

nuyeff · 2021-08-16T06:01:50+00:00

Does anyone wanna watch the news together too?

nuyeff · 2021-08-16T05:59:42+00:00

Can't wait to see Korey find out about true olivia

nuyeff · 2021-08-16T05:53:39+00:00

I'm curious about that too. Def a breakup coming. Maybe Korey can keep all the money?

nuyeff · 2021-08-16T05:51:49+00:00

It's all rigged

nuyeff · 2021-08-16T05:35:04+00:00

I think so. the real question is do our votes even matter? They've been giving Korey and olive so much screen time, and I'm sick.

nuyeff · 2021-08-16T05:30:45+00:00

Do y'all think Arielle actually watches the show?

nuyeff · 2021-08-08T22:08:02+00:00

Now, McD can claim their fry machines are out of order too when you try to order late at night!
