    My only reason that I want to try out steel building, especially origami. I want to start with small, so I don't throw out much money if it turns to be a disaster.

    (And anyway, now I know that GRP is not for me. I am currently building a flax composite kayak. I will finish it only to figure out the real extent of the screwup I did: it is out of shape and delaminated, and I am not sure I can even make it watertight.)

    Rayman, no need to register on my website - just browse and use the links.

    As for the 20ft - the drawings were made during the early 90's when I was actively designing boats and are for the decade and half stored away in an outbuilding (my junk store) but see if I can get to it easily soon without unpacking the place:p
