Lincoln sez> If you want to build gliders yourself, well then things are
still cheap,
but there are so few people who want to do that that kits are hard to
find.

Well, I've been scratch building for a long time. It is so much easier
with CAD and laser cutting now that it's easier in my opinion than
building the kits of old... and certainly more accurate in duplicating
airfoils. Cad drawings are very fine line and plotters are much more
accurate than the old methods of producing plans.

Lincoln sez> BTW, although I've flown 2M a LOT, I think 100 inches
would have been
the better limited size.

I would be ALL FOR THAT!!! There are many models that were designed in
2-meter size that would benefit SSOOOOO much from 100" wing span... But
somehow, that isn't what happened. Just exactly how DID that happen,
anyhow? Yeah, I'm one of those "friends don't let friends" guys... I
can't help it!
