Tetrahedral Kite

This is a tetrahedral kite that I made... It's basically like 64 little triangles made of string, straws, and tissue paper banded together to make a huge kite... This one stands about 7 feet tall: pretty big! This kite (although it's only made of straw and tissue paper) is too heavy to fly. But for of the smaller tetrahedrons put together can fly... Anyway, let me know what you think... and remember to Please Comment, Rate, and Subscribe!!!

dont use tissue paper for the bigger ones. ceram wrap could work well although i havnt tested it yet, and some of the lighter plastics work nicely too.
