My model is made from a single garbage bag and packing tape.I cut 3 slits width ways along one face. I then place packing tape over these slits so that there would be joins. This created four ‘pillow’ like chambres. I achieved what I set out to do. I had to be very careful not to cause tares in the thin plastic. My model can be likened to the beach lilo that one uses to float on water with in a reclined posiition. The model is similar in a way to the model of the kite explored above. After exploring the kit’s four chamber like members, I was interestied in this form of inflation.
