He’s still got the same coffee cup. Probably hasn’t been washed between those photos either.

But thanks for the memories. For true authenticity the first picture needs piles of eraser dust around the floor (twitch). Here’s one drafty that doesn’t miss those days at all.

Yeah, I actually thought about dropping a minifig drill on the table to represent an electric eraser, but thought the general public wouldn’t get it. He also needs piles of templates scattered around (including the one that fell between the wall and the table and is impossible to get).

The coffee cup is the same too. I know for a fact that I’ve been drinking out of my same cup since at least 1998, possibly longer. I reminisce about the past and tell the new guys how much easier it is now. I miss it and enjoyed it, but would go back to the manual ways for any amount of money.
