Here in Phoenix, we have what is called a Bulk Trash pickup. The city is divided up into sections and each section has a two week window where homeowners can put virtually anything out onto their curb for pickup. It happens quarterly.
Well I was driving home from across town when I saw this on the curb with a bunch of other crap. I pulled over and simply picked it up.
Anybody remember these? It is an individual sauna. Rubber seals are still good, the door handle is there and it still has the plastic chrome trim. One small crack in the fiberglass at the bottom on the front. A little dusty, but in pretty darn good shape.
It will look good next to a mint green DP machine!  ':p'

That was Thunderball with Sean Connery. He was at some health spa and trapped some other guy inside it. Not exactly the same style as the one I just got. In the movie, Bond was able to shove a broom or mop handle between the handles on the sauna. Mine has a twist type handle on it, which is accessible from inside also. Mine is missing the original steamer - an electric skillet was (and still is) in the bottom.

An electric skillet?'<img'>

Thats not good. Those things have been known to short.

I looked at the picture first before I read any of it and I thought that it was a urinal with a door on it!  '<img'>  '<img'>
