for sale: tetra Kite Kit

[bigmike56782]

for sale: tetra Kite Kit. this kit originally had 36 connectors, 96
branches and 16 sails but now has 32 connectors, 75 branches and 11
sails. It was given to me by a friend who bought it many years ago at
thr Field Museum in Chicago. It was designed to be a 16 sail super
tetra kite by combining 4 single kites. there is still enough
material to make two smaller tetra kites. I dont have what it takes
to make a single kite, since it involves cutting the sails,etc. It is
very old, so you would have to file the branches slightly to make them
fit the connectors. Are there any bids for this rare item? it was
manufactured by Synestructics, Inc., 9559 Irondale Ave,, Chatsworth,
Ca 91311

i'm asking $1 for this kite, plus $4 shipping, or if you live in the
Chicago area, I can probably deliver it.
Any takers now?

Hi Mike,

I would be intereset if you'd consider $10.00 Cdn. for the whole thing
and ship it by mail to me here in Ontario (mark it as a gift so I
don't have to pay duty or taxes on it). I'll send you a postal money
order to your snail mail address if you're interested. Contact me
off-list - my email address can be found at www.gothicdesign.ca - and
we'll talk.
