Default WCIF: Antique computers/electrical equipment
I'm working on a community lot that is meant to look like an abandoned military outpost type thing.
I'd really like some old electrical equipment, that looks like this:

The items needn't be functional, I just want some decoration.

Whenever I try searching for Sims 3 Antique Computers or anything like that, all I get are forum posts from people trying to run the Sims 3 game on old laptops and the like.
I'm struggling to find 1970s type computers/radio transmitters/equipment.

CloudwalkerSims had a midcentury (I think early 60's) typewriter that worked; Chicvibe uploaded it here. (I'm 95% sure it's in the Mad Men file.) https://simfileshare.net/folder/57461/

CycloneSue on TSR has a vintage adding machine that also worked! https://www.thesimsresource.com/dow...ter/id/1165625/

And AroundTheSims3 has a working typewriter (no.11). https://aroundthesims3.com/objects/...asonal_12.shtml

I'm sorry, I misinterpreted earlier. Would the decor computers in this set be useful? They're more wall-mounted and definitely have a UNIVAC look to them. http://sims3planet.net/%D0%BD%D0%BE...Set-by-Ladesire

Yup, I was thinking of that set, and this other one by Ladesire, too: https://ladesire-thesims3.blogspot....y-ladesire.html

Yes, sorry for not being clearer, that terminal is kinda cool and nifty, but I was looking more for the floor-to-ceiling "panels with glowing lights etc" on them!

There is a set for Dr Frankenstein lab here on MTS.
You may find some of its pieces useful.
