Timelapse of me building a kite traditionally made in my country, Haiti, as a school project.
The materials I used to build the kite were purchased at Home Depot and Michael's Arts & Craft stores.

This is the exact way I make my kite here in Canada (born in jamaica) bit I usually do a star or diamond design & wrap the design in a different colour so it stands out.I also use clear plastic to wrap the entire kite to protect the paper wrap from being torn while flying it....u did a great job.

Adding the clear plastic sheet is a new method of construction i have never seen before, but i can see it makes the kite more durable yet still be multi coloured, thats clever. A very well made kite that flys as good as it looks, well done Sir !!

Ian Virco thank you. And yes the clear plastic makes it more durable and lasts twice as long. ☺️

I love your professional final work, I am not sure how you measured the head strings and the tail string. Please reply, on these 2 measurements. It is 2 crucial measurements for the Haitian kite or Grandou to fly properly. Merci a pile.

@MarcJoseph 4 жыл бұрын

It's simple really, I used a triangle measurement technique. What I mean is that I tied the string on one end of the kite's head, pull the string down to the middle of the kite, then back up to the other end of the kite's head then did my final knot. It's the same process for the tail.

I can never know what the right kind of glue to use. Im surprised glue holds up.

@MarcJoseph 4 жыл бұрын

Well, I only used regular paper glue to glue down the colored sheets. But the magic is in the plastic wrap ;-)

Nice. Love the idea of the clear plastic. I assume it's to protect the paper?👍

HammRtrini that's correct 😁

@charlesart1992 5 жыл бұрын

The clear plastic does protect it however, there is a major change it's a major change actually, when you apply the plastic layer it takes away the hardness of the kite which would be a lot harder to steer and pul, since you apply that layer it'll be smoother, and that's better

@MarcJoseph 4 жыл бұрын

@@charlesart1992 In addition to what you said, it also creates a flat smooth surface for the wind to flow, which allows the kite to glide and fly smoothly in the sky.

Daly Zee, the wood is called "wooden dowels". They can be found at home depot like he stated in the wood area. Or Walmart in the art and craft section.
