Everyone,
We're still looking for an appropriate desk, stand, table, etc. to use with the Univac. It needs to be metal, and ideally painted gray but we could always paint it by ourselves. Of course it needs to be strong enough to hold the 1960s teletype, but it shouldn't be too large -- we do not want a big desk there, just something maybe 2-3 ft. wide. We need this relatively soon. It should be in good condition (nothing rusted, in need of repair, etc.) and have a period 1960s look.

Yup. I leaned late last night that it's called a "tanker desk". Martin emailed me and it turns out Infoage may have one after all. I have to wait for another IA person to open a certain building for me. On Dec 27, 2017 10:34 AM, "Duane Craps via vcf-midatlantic" < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vintagecomputerfederation.org> wrote:
