1934 Pop Sci Chemistry table & fume cupboard

I've scanned & re-formatted a 1934 article from Popular Science on building a nice chemistry bench with a built-in fume cupboard and equipment & chemical storage. In PDF form the article is 1.8M. Would folks like me to post it?

Here's a low-res preview:

I can also OCR the text to make it searchable, if someone could proofread it for me.

Many thanks, Gearhead! Keep the great Popular Science articles coming. They recall a golden era of home chemisty. I only caught the last of it in the 1960's.

It's great to see what amateur chemists were doing when my father was a toddler.
