    I recent found this old gem and restored it. I rewired the guts with LED rope lights and removed years of rust and added a nice Makita Blue paint job. Turned out pretty nice.

    I know right? I didn't know that I did until I saw it. It's cool. For basically what amounts to a business card today and maybe some pamphlets, they used to leave behind clocks and lights and other cool stuff. This thing has lights and was made of steel. I mean what's actually made of steel anymore that doesn't absolutely have to be? Just sort of screams nostalgia.
