<p>[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 245560, member: 54"]Why, it stands for Art Deco Revival, of course! This was another impulse buy, finger went to the "buy" button all by itself, nothing I could do about it. It is approx 48x36x36, all steel except the removeable top is plywood wrapped around by heavy-gauge steel. End pieces were cut out probably by CNC plasma torch. End design works are in two mirrored pieces split vertically as you can tell by close inspection. I'm going to keep it near the machine tools to hold workpieces for prep or inspection. Top isn't attached now so we can get it thru doorways until it finds its permanent location. You can tell it was made by shop workers using leftover materials because the footrest rails are two different sizes of steel. I'd guess it dates from 1980's or 90's, but that's a wild guess. I'll de-rust and coat or paint the top.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://springfieldarsenal.files.wordpress.com/2017/05/img_5304.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://springfieldarsenal.files.wordpress.com/2017/05/img_5305.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://springfieldarsenal.files.wordpress.com/2017/05/img_5306.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://springfieldarsenal.files.wordpress.com/2017/05/img_5307.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
