Sooner or later I'll get this one from RAACO:
Save a lot of space and is making life a lot easier.Isn't there a bunch of wasted space in the middle?
I think what you're seeing and thinking is wasted space is actually the side of the cabinet(s). We have one of those at work - it's a lazy susan with the cabinets stacked on top, offset so that they meet side to back. The blue wall to the right (by the open drawers) is the side of the back facing cabinets, and the blue wall in the center is the left side of the right facing cabinets with the open drawers. I hope this makes the arrangement clear - it would have been much easier to see if the picture had been taken from a slightly higher angle to make the top visible.
It's a pretty cool storage idea, but I shudder to think of the mess if it ever got knocked over. The one at work seems a bit top heavy and tipsy to me.

-PatI'm referring to the center. By stacking them together this way, you're bound to have a void. Obviously, the turning radius on the outside also cannot be used for other things, not without losing the turning capabilities at least.
I'm not saying they can't be useful or practical, but the limited space here has trained me to seek out inefficiencies in storage designs
That radio looks to me to be maybe from around the the 1980s? Thats my guess.
That radio looks to me to be maybe from around the the 1980s? Thats my guess.I'm not really sure, it just says in the yellowish sticker paper in the battery compartment: "DATE CODE: 5329"It is a GE 7-2584 that can be found in several eBay listings. The date code may well be 29-March-1985 but given one of the photographs on the internet says it is "Made in China", that puts it well into the 1990s or early 2000s.
The first transistor radio, the Regency TR-1, was released in 1954.

Wow, the possibilities..
You had to the remove cable chain and cut an hole into the ceiling for it after remounting..?
Can you use the whole vertical span? Or is the cable chain only for the horizontal movement?
Wow, that really has to be for primarily commercial use, and hobbies use second surely?
