Hi,
I am working on a student engineering project, which is a Supermileage vehicle. The Supermileage vehicle is almost like a tadpole trike with a small motor. We have been using a few bicycle parts to make it efficient and light. We want to build a portion of our body's skin out as a lycra windsock. I believe it would be simple to install over our framing, but I don't have the proper equipment to sew the lycra or good knowledge about the material. I was hoping to find someone around Columbus Ohio area that could possibly help with this problem.
Thanks!
Jeremy

Jeremy;
Richard Myers, who posts on these forums and lives in Xenia, can probably help you out. He has experience with stretchy fabric sewing. Take a look at his Chiquita project
