Those kites were made on ’60’s machine. I use an electrified 1926 (black & gold the past 12 yrs to make drapes & repair clothing now though❕ not as nice as a newer model (pain in the ass actually) Wow I can’t find a photo of it to share with you❕ I have 3 CPU towers sitting on that cabinet now so next month when I vacuum them out I will snap a shot & post it 😉 𝕊𝕥𝕒𝕪 𝕋𝕦𝕟𝕖𝕕 🙂
I remember rocking on Grandma’s trundle 3 yrs old and keeping my fingers away from that pully wheel with the belt on it…ouchy if ya got your fingers in that ❗️
When my Grandpa passed in ’63 I remember the Preacher saying the wind tugging on your string is the Lord pulling you in his direction I have been making & sharing kites now for for 50+ years 😉
Wow! Those are some really cool kites!
