    New Addition to the Shop - Vyper Chair

    I’ve been on the fence for about a year about picking up one of the Vyper Chairs that I’ve seen all over the internet and several posts from members here on the journal.

    Vintage Industrial Ladder - Adding Casters?

    Hey All, Been on the hunt for a nice stepladder for use in the shop, picked up a pretty nice example from a buddy, exactly the same as the one in the photo. You can see the (4) posts that the casters would fit into. I believe these to have been spring loaded, as there is still a spring...

    Vintage Single-Seater Factory Cart - Electrical Assistance Requested

    Hello, All - I've recently purchased a vintage Single-Seater "Factory Cart," made by WestingHouse, branded as a "Marketeer." I believe this to have likely been used in industrial settings, like getting from one side of the factory to the other, etc. based off of what I've seen from the more...
