the glassman, mike mckusick will build a carbon fibre factory pod for $750 US. i have been poking around for interest in that but there is none, i'd love to get an order for 3 or 4 pods and get them done so he can work on them and have a great product. with my newfound knowledge of the EC I could make all the required hardware - its really not as bad as some people say. the pod part that moves is only held on by two bolts! its all the fittings that make the pod move that are numerous yet simple L-brackets mostly.
shorty, are you going to put in a kick spar to support the sparbox? and is that a pic of gerry's 2-seater? i heard he had a run-in with a bean field.
Shorty, people might be skeptical about your Dcells purely from your apparent abrasive nature, however maybe if you posted some detailed info about construction and a few pics of your jigs people might get on board. Also, I think if you sold a complete kit *including* covering materials that people would jump twice - having a new wing with no covering is kind of useless..... buy a roll of tedlar buddy and sell the complete package.
