I have recently been building miniature kites with fairly good success. The kites are amazingly good fliers indoors. There is a problem that I have had, though. I can't find a good way to bridle these small kites, no matter how nimble my fingers are. Does anyone know a way to make a bridle that I can adjust correctly and fly with? I'd really appreciate suggestions. I'm really enjoying this branch of kiteflying but this bridle thing bugs me. Good winds.
