: Okay, be gentle with me here. I continue to contemplate how a first-timer
: could build a folding kayak. The image of a klepper frame found on ebay
: suggest a rather straightforward (?) aluminum frame. Has anyone ever
: attempted this with PVC pipe? PVC is cheap, flexible, strong, and so I
: wonder about its candidacy for frame building. Also, it would be very easy
: to repair.

PVC pipe should work. It is a little brittle, but if you start out with big enough diameter it shoul be OK.
