Ah yeah, I've seen them around as well. The threaded-rod is a blessing to civilization. Although not indicative of any trend, I'm going to share my Bell/Teletype table because it's cool: https://picasaweb.google.com/102190732096693814506/Model45TeletypeTable?noredirect=1 I assume Teletype actually made it, but who knows.
