Despite having been commercialized in the late 1930's Acrylic Plastic, Poly(methyl methacrylate), was all the rage in the late fifties and early sixties. Remember "The Graduate?" I made these 2 pieces in a seventh grade shop class in 1959. I was pretty hard pressed to come up with something I made myself for this weeks Macro Mondays challenge. Most of my creations are intellectual property or large scale things made out of steel, copper and concrete. Both are hard to do in macro scale. So I went way back to these early efforts.
Area shown is about 60mm wide.
Happy Macro Monday!
