vintage hightech electronics workbench

This electronic workbench looks like it was hightech back in its day.

Like it... just don't really want it. Needs a bigger scope.

It is not really space efficient. For the space it take up, I can stack my scope, multimeter, signal gen and variac on the bench and get the same results in 1/20th of the space. I wonder what industry it was designed for? Almost makes me think it came out of a school or other learning institute.

Looks like a home-built bench. The components aren't all of the same vintage. The signal generator is mid-50s to 60s, the scope and VTVM are mid-60s to early 70s.

EICO (Electronic Instrument Co.) sold pre-assembled test instruments and kits to build your own. The signal generator looks like the kit version, and the scope may be too.

Nice to look at, not to my taste. Hobby grade instruments too, no point in old stuff not to have the best.

Pretty much.

He'd be way ahead to part it out.

Looks like there is a Variac in there and the little scope would be good for conversion into an octopus tester or AM mod monitor. The generator would probably be parted out to make a regen receiver or a single 6V6 guitar amp.
