One more thing: your lamp fixture is rated for a maximum of 50W. Make sure any socket you buy has at least that rating (I suspect they all do, but better safe than sorry).

The Flex is the only minivan sized non minivan with minivan space inside. As a six foot tall, I had no issue ridding in the third raw.

While I’ve been using the Internet since before the web was a thing, I somehow completely missed MySpace. I visited plenty of Geocities pages though!

AC Propulsion eBox - Wikipedia

It was the AC Propulsion Ebox. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_Prop...
ACP was not a coach builder. They built EV conversions and came up with the idea of powering a car from lithium ion batteries. They supplied the initial electronics for the Tesla Roadster.

I think it is especially noticeable these days as the vast majority of photos are taken with phone cameras that are too wide for portraits.

A short section of rail. It most likely came from Southern Pacific Railroad.

A relative of one of my neighbors gave me this piece of rail! It was part of a batch that was supposed to be turned into anvils, but it somehow never happened for this particular one.

Reading about D-subminiature connectors and came to realize DB-9 is incorrect and are really DE-9! I will try to use the correct name going forward, but It's going to be hard after 40 years of using the wrong term...

Are the four silver colored contacts on the bottom just springs to get a better shielding?

A Porsche Taycan parked on a grey paver driveway. It is painted in a gradient going from pastel blue to pastel pink.

When you can’t decide which color to pick.
Note: I could not get really close to it as that is a private driveway, but it did not look like a wrap.

A beige platform lift on top of an orange pallets jack on top of the forks of a silver and red forklift. This trio was found on the very fine gravel in front of a white fence shielding the habitants of a very fancy house from having to endure looking at us peasants.

It came with a bunch of pins, although I rarely use more than four. I'll keep the idea of a rocker if the need for it ever arises.

An aluminum clamp. It is circular with a bunch of holes on its surface. Three of those holes are in use to hold pins that in turn hold an assembly made of a brass part and an aluminum ring. The clamp is mounted in a small yellow and green vise. My legs are visible below the workbench. I’m wearing red pants.

This pin based vise comes in handy when I need to hold odd shaped parts.
