Awesome - I saw a set like this many years ago (let's say mid-90s) in
the window of an "antiques" (junk) store in St. Charles, IL. I think
they wanted around $250 for it, and those were the days I was scraping
together $5 for meals, so it wasn't going to happen for me. I always
assumed it was a salesman's kit, for helping to lay our datacenters
(maybe it came with a big sheet of scaled grid paper to represent
floor tiles?)
Well, I'll be bidding...
