I've got one like this, but in better shape. From the wife's grandfather. Only needed one handle fix about 10 y.a. Trying to unload it now to someone who would value it as we are moving.
Gosh, I would think someone would love to have a classic like that! I guess I’ll be using my old one as a flower container, unless I can find someone who wants it.

Bought, and assembled this bad boy ... to replace the sad, rotten one that was here at the house, when I bought it over 20 year ago!
Big time utility. I just grabbed a frame with a two wheel axle off the side of the road and I think I'll just make it into a flat cart rather than put a tub on it. I've got a trusty old Jackson like your Ace there. Maybe a few more dents and holes and plenty of rust. Just like my truck and me! Lol
This was in 2006, when one of the handles broke ...

I use Radiologic DJ as the backend audio system. The music flow is fantastic and all its options enable you to create and autocreate flows like on RP. The frontend is a Drupal website that has been extensively modified to create a page for ratings, comments, cover art and information with the start of each new song. It also enabled all the statics i.e. what bands get played most, playlists, most popular and so on. Got about 14,000 titels in rotation. The site uses an HTML5 player in an iFrame for consistent audio playback (even when you are navigating the page). The audio stream is icecast2 and set up so that you can only listen when you are logged into the site.
Before I used to listen to RP exclusively from 2004 to 2019, recently I listen to my station 80% and to RP 20% for inspiration.
It's my fun project. What I love most is the fact that the system allows me to revisit and rediscover my music and to be surprised with each new title. Of course for that to work all you titles need to be properly tagged and rated.

Went to the gym to do some training, checked for freelance jobs (there were none) and went back to working on my pet project: an eclectic web radio station not unlike RP. Website is working like RP before the cache feature. Since royalties are too high in Europe, I'm the only listener when I'm not already listening to RP.
I do the same thing. I now have almost 4000 songs, with almost 10 days of music on my iTunes. It's really cool to listen to. Wow! I like that song! Wow! I like that song! Wow! I like that song! Wow! I like that song! Wow! I like that song! Wow! I like that song! Wow! I like that song! Wow! I like that song!
Cool idea, have to check if such transmitters are legal to run over here.
