Priorities changed a few times last week, for various reasons. This one got started, knowing it was going to be in the way eventually, just because the other stuff had been put on hold.
That exactly what happened, so it had to be disassembled and moved out of the way. Yesterday it got back to the top of the list. So I set it back up, moved back quite a bit, so it wouldn't be in the way, if I had to switch away from it again. It's not due until the end of the month, so it can be an on-off.
It got most of my time today, so probably 90% done. It still needs the above countertop line laminate and 3 of the 4 access panels.

Good 'ol Harbor Freight.

The stool, yes. It's sketchy at best though. Every once in a while, I catch one of those seams in the floor. That will kick-start your heart....or land you on the floor. Done both. The cylinder is starting to leak too, so it gets shorter over time and I have to run it back up.
I was cheap, and it shows. I'm in the market for something better, but haven't decided yet.
The best one I ever had was an office chair with the back removed, but some idiot crushed it with a forklift. At least I wasn't on it at the time.

You can't spend big everywhere. I have the same one in my garage. It's done me well so far (7 years?) but I'm very gentle with it because I know it's weak.

It's hard to be gentle on a stool at 6' 2" and 250#.....lol
 
Yeah, there are benefits to being smaller sometimes.

I fix trains for a living. I was under one with my partner the other day. I'm 5' 8", he's like 6' 4". I was on my tip toes trying to look into something, he says "get out of the way shorty" so I stepped back and he proceeded to step into my position and promptly cracked his head on something that was too high for me to hit.
We laughed for a while over that one....
 
Your stool reminded me of when my (now adult) son was a toddler and he found the Snap On rolling stool we had at my business would lift him when he pulled the lever.  He would ride it up as many times as he could get one of the the crew to compress it for him which seemed endless. All the better if he could get one of them to compress it and give him a spin before he pulled the lever.

Never underestimate the capacity of a 4 year old to repeatedly-repeat-repetitive motions.....
