Vintage 1970s Craftsman Folding Side Shelf/Workbench
Up for sale is a genuine, USA-made Craftsman folding side tray for a roll-away tool chest. This is a solid, heavy-gauge steel piece from the 1970s, originally owned by a family member and kept in a working garage.
Condition Details:
Mechanism: Functions perfectly.
It folds down flat and locks into place securely when raised.
Body: The red paint on the sides and bottom is in great shape for its age.Surface: The top has honest "patina" and surface paint wear from decades of use (see photos).
No deep structural rust or "rot"—the steel is thick and ready for another 50 years.Authenticity: 100% original paint. I am leaving it as-is so you can see the true condition, rather than hiding anything with a fresh spray job.
If the top wear bothers you, a simple magnetic tool mat or rubber drawer liner covers it perfectly and provides a great non-slip workspace.
