YSP49 Assembly

There are different ways of assembling these pieces for a final standoff assembly. Burn a 3/32" hole in kite sail for your standoff rod to go through. The reason for not gluing to the YSP42 is that the pressure keeps it in place and lets you break down your kite for storage without loosing the pieces.
