Paulfish thnks for your advise and PAR as well. I do have a friend who is specialized in Composite (even with cork core) so I hink I can get some...
Yes I will try to keep COG low... I asked for better side pictures and then sketch some additional sheer on it just to see what it looks like.......

haha yes you are right.... but I do want a little more pleasing to the eye appeal.. and yes, I am Dutch, so it must cost not more then 10 cents......
