Not that one...
The bottom portion looked like a basin that would have been used for washing metal parts in a machinist’s shop 80 years ago.
It was tall and maybe 36" (or less) wide.
Appeared to be metal.
I’ll see if I can come up with a pic of the WE look-a-like later, unless johnk did do the build and can offer info in the meantime.
