apologies if this has been up here before, but had to post this up as I had a "why haven't had one of these years ago" moment

cost me a mere £20 uk pounds from well known auction site delivered to my door, & makes working on these engines so easy for us older guys, place for my tools underneath & space for the bits I take off

I kept this folding camp stool in the frunk and used it when I had my Bug. Doesn't work well for the Type 4, though...

Stool and a creeper. No point in rolling around on the ground when you don't have to.

I have lots of those sliders too!!! I have a old friend (shelby john ) he would but a new creeper(I think we bought it for his bday) and he would take the wheels off befor ever using it. he liked sliders better. and years lator i realized I do to most of the time.no hair in the wheels, no rollen when you dont want to,it sits lower, easy on&off ,dont get stuck from a tiny spec of fly shit on the wheel or line in the concreate. he is a little odd but he aint stupid. and creepers dont work in the grass.

First thing I made when I bought my arc welder. Also my first welding project, so my welds were super ugly, but they got the job done.

I was born in '79 so no motorcycles for me until around 2002. While I was grinding and welding that angle steel I just had that bright green color in mind for no apparent reason. Just seemed like the right color to paint a little work stool. And nothing complements electric green like a deep blue, so my upholstery was also predetermined.

Hard to beat $17.50 here in the states at good ole HF. I've always wanted to buy one but I've always wanted to build one also. Just need one more caster wheel.
