What? No Spool?

Dude, recycled things for furniture and you didn't put in the SPOOL? That's one of the most fabulous things about the 70's.

    Major oversight! Even the church I attend uses them for tables, including right out front for the bulletins, pens, and welcoming stuff. Did EA include shipping pallets/skids as recycle & use bait?

    Haha, my parents had a couple of those when I was a kid too. Definitely a missed opportunity.

    Oh wow, spool tables. I haven't seen one of those in years. They certainly would have fit the vibe of this pack.

    It is used by construction/power companies to roll up cables and wires. In the 70's you could find these everywhere on the side of the road and people would grab them and take them home to use for tables. They would place them right after they raked up the fuzzy carpet! LOL

    My grandmother had one as her patio table down in Florida back in the 70's and 80's.
