it appears his young, nimble fingers had a bit of trouble as well :)
....impressive work though!
another fabric theme for a portable yagi can be found at
http://www.dianaeng.com/2010/05/make-online-collapsible-fabric-yagi-antenna/
...at least this one won't fly off like a kite! probably cheaper as well,
however, both are really cool designs!

Pretty darn ingeneous packaging! Hams, unlike university students, all have
fat fingers and would struggle to extract that 3-part antenna boom. I like
the fabric roll-up concept, but wonder if it would present wind-load
problems in a real-world field application?

I liked the fold away yagi antenna in this video of the OSSI ground station.
