Homebrew BA's in Unusual Chassis? [Was: Re: Antique Radio Club of IL Radiofest XXII Pix]

This picture gives me an idea (note what looks like a coffee machine
under the table) -- one might speculate that the spigot coming out of
the front is a gooseneck mic and that there is a rig built into the main
chassis (I know, I am in hamfest withdrawal)

It would be interesting to see pictures of boatanchor homebrew rigs and
radio room accessories built into unexpected chassis.

I have seen a picture of a PC built into a stainless steel breadbox,
looked neat -- one can imagine the same being done with a small homebrew
rig.  Last I knew an old friend had gutted a microwave oven and was
building a rig into it.

Anyone have something to share?
