Vintage shop stools anyone?

[Zrxrunner]

Ive for some reason taken a liking to all the old shop stools i come across that make me remember shop class in high school. Anyone else have some cool oldies to show off? Ive got about 10 or so more of the old all steel ones with thin wooden "pad" ill be uploading picures of when i get the stuff off of them! Lol. Never seen the style on the far right until it came up in an online auction. Metal backrest frame is a cast aluminum even! Figured it would be some cheesy plastic cover when i was bidding.

I only have one vintage stool. I bought it off a local old timer picker who goes by the name of, "The Godfather of Junk". As you can see by the tag under the seat, this stool is an oldie.

More of a kitchen stool than a shop stool, but one like this in the same yellow color was relegated to the shop in the 70's or late 60's. It would be fun to restore.

What do you call a stool you got by marriage?



A step stool.






I'll show myself out.

Yo, @Dragfluid! Look what just popped up! Nice one in post #3, too.

Oh, and for @pcrov, you're in good company.

I was just made aware of this thread.
Here's what it could look like when you restore it.

If you want it to be red, this is what it could look like. You can get new step pads from Cosco.

Unfortunately, it was chucked as part of the house clean out when Mom passed. No rational way to ship old stuff with little monetary value 1000 miles.

I’ve got these two in heavy rotation right now… both vintage and recycled from work. Different heights and uses…
