Need a seat, as aluminium tube aint too comfy!
So, I get my landsailer bits from my uncles hay shed, where it has been sitting dormant for 10 years.
Wheels, check. Chassis, check. Mast, check. Steering, check. Seat. . . . hmmm. No seat.
I wasn't really that fond of it anyway, given it was an old plastic school chair screwed to a piece of aluminium.
So I was thinking I might investigate the options of making one. Now given it will be a one off I was looking at fibreglassing techniques for one off projects and came up with foam sandwich.
Has anyone had any experience with using this technique and or fibre glass woven cloth? It looks to be relatively straight forward, but I'm not sure of what the finish would be like.

Sabydent builds a mini
I am in the planning stage of building a mini. Since I am 1000 miles from the nearest ocean, I will be doing most of my land sailing in a large parking lot. I do not want to do body damage, to either myself or any parked cars,therefore I will want to put a brake on the mini. I think a disc brake would be the best. Any ideas how to put one of those on the wheels? Would it be best on the front or the back? Thanks.
Brian
