Honestly, aside from some specialized tools and apex seal and corner seal fitting they are pretty simple. No valves or cams.

Don’t threaten me with a good time! (trip to local tool store).

They are actually semi common. I got one from autozone that was one of those flimsy stamped ones. 54mm is Toyota front knuckle castle nut on solid axle trucks. I bought another off amazon and turned it down on the lathe to fit in the knuckle.

I just googled local autozone and etc. It's special order. At least it's a common size. I'm currently trying to find a damn laptop charging cart for my work. I guess it's common to have 14" screen size cart, but to find 15.6" screen or bigger laptop charging cart is almost impossible. I've found maybe 3... & one of em cost like $1,700!!!!! SMH

OMG I just googled that and those are expensive. I'd imagine a plastic AV cart could be modified with some dividers and power strips to work just fine.

I get what you’re saying & do agree… but we’re talking about Librarians. They don’t do DYI or anything customization. I, myself can… but do I want to? No, not really. Too much effort & I don’t get paid enough for my extra work lol
