Remember the 70’s with cool airline stuff, the looks, the design. I decided to turn my Glowforge into a time machine and re-do some of those hip cool things…
(have a little pity for me, this was my first week owning a GF)
Nice! I’m glad to see that you got the line issue worked out in the first tag.
YUP - they needed to be scored…

The good ol’ days of air travel, sorta. These turned out great.
These look great!!
Back then, people dressed up to get on a plane. It was an amazing adventure. Now people fly in their pajamas. I want to scream “pajamas are for sleeping not flying” but I digress.
I was on a flight I saw this mother and three of her spawn, with a cooler blocking the aisle, I knew the "times are a changin’
remember the flight attendant look into coach, before she closed the first class curtain?
“if you only worked harder”

And flying coach was actually cool, with legroom and a meal, and a big screen movie.
The good ol’ days that never were. Legroom, meals and smoking. Two out of three were nice.
I remember the smoking on planes. Glad it’s gone. Being in close quarters with cigarette smoke gives me a migraine and a massive bloody nose, as a child, it was never-ending bloody nose and ear infections.
Also, I’m definitely one of those people who fly in my pjs, or at least something warm and comfortable (I don’t really have pjs , just sweatpants and sweater), and that’s because we travel overseas and I always book the red eye so my sleep pattern isn’t too disrupted. I am on the plane at 1am, about the time I should be sleeping here, and when I wake up, it’s morning where I land. My carry-on has a change of day clothes so I change at the airport before venturing into society.
My kids love flying, and their favorite part is airline food and inflight movies. I don’t even bring snacks because I hate crumbs.
I always think some day I want to book a first class flight, then I look at the prices and think to myself…I could stay at some luxury hotels and eat awesome food, all for sitting in a bit of discomfort for 12 hours…in some places I can even buy my own vacation home
The reason for the curtain is so the folks in coach don’t see how lousy the meals actually are in first class
Isn’t that two tone acrylic fun? Your projects came out great!
@cynd11 I LOVE THAT STUFF, I think it is my most favorite material to work with,
