the rear wheelbases are closer together on the left.. looks like it might be more symmetrical??

The one on the left is half an inch shorter, has the W pushed right back, its 29.5 and 30 wheel base. The big difference is the layers and reduced weight, these are down to 1900grams on the left and 2080 on the right.
I managed to get some single layer veneer, and tried it on the left one. These both have a more of an Elise type tail with the sharper corners, They are both hoop pine rather than the hardwood this time.

Just read merrick's first question, on the other page, yes i have plans for other shapes but right now i'm busy on other stuff and just refining this one with materials and build techniques, kinda like research and development without the big budget. Keeping them almost the same to compare and tweak stuff.
