I only know that that damn geo metro powerplant with the 5 speed and oversized
tires would get some great mileage in a scaled down version.

Here's a newish article from AutoSpeed about using cardboard as a construction media. Don't know. Maybe combined with Molt Taylors paper/glass technique it might be usable for a HPV or a small 3-wheeler. What I do see is an inexpensive way to practice cutting and folding sandwich structures rather than using the high dollar real thing. It's probably a cheaper way to build prototypes or mockups than using plywood or MDF. <http://www.autospee d.com/cms/ A_111401/ article.html>

Good riddance and all that that implies.......
The SPAMmers are getting more insidious though.
No one who replies with a g-mail address from a Craigslist thing is
legit........
Has anyone heard of the new data storage unit coming out that store info in a
gel disk? What implications does it hold for us being able to interface things
from contrary manufacturing? Just wondering....

All,
I just finished reading "Composite Materials Fabrication Handbook #1" (Composite
