So cool that he repurposed the lab table into a workbench! It's nice that you get to keep something that means so much.<br />RoseRose @ Confessions of a Curbshopaholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14937964580748244670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1541118795098319351.post-83845062093135539542010-04-16T22:35:06.647-04:002010-04-16T22:35:06.647-04:00What a great legacy.

Except, I seem to remember burn makes from wild Bunsens and patches from split chemicals. The construction is impressive.
