The three-inch Compact Floppy Disk. Amdek was a big vendor of Compact Floppy drives for the popular U.S. 8-bits (Apple II and Atari, anyway).
I grabbed such a drive and a box of blank Compact Floppies for cheap back in the late 80s for an Apple IIe of mine. It plugged into the standard Disk ][ controller and offered 140K per side (they are "flippy").
These are at least twice as thick as today's (well...yesterday's?) 3.5-inch microfloppies.
I've been wanting to try a standing workstation for quite a while now and I finally took the plunge a few weeks ago. Like the author of this post on Web Worker Daily, I didn't want to spend a lot of money setting it up. After experimenting to find just the right height, I discovered that I could obtain that height simply by using an empty cardboard box from our food delivery service (I even get a new box each week with my fruits & veggies delivery).
The best thing about this compact setup in my kitchen is that at the end of each day I tear it down and pack it up, which takes all of 5 minutes and puts a firm cap on the number of hours that I end up working.
The fill tube is attached to an Air Base in the bottom of this planter.The planter is a florist bucket so it had no holes in the bottom to begin with but I do need a smaller fill tube.

The Cupra Formentor is a compact crossover SUV (C-segment) manufactured by the Spanish car manufacturer SEAT under their Cupra performance-oriented sub-brand. Marketed as a coupé SUV, it is the first car designed specifically for the sub-brand. The production version was revealed in March 2020 after it was postponed due to the cancellation of the Geneva Motor Show. It was previewed as a near-production concept vehicle at the 2019 Geneva Motor Show. It is named after Formentor peninsula on the Spanish island of Majorca. Production of the Formentor started in late September 2020.
The Formentor is available with a 245 PS (180 kW; 242 hp) 1.4-litre plug-in hybrid, a 2.0-litre turbo generating 310 PS (228 kW; 306 hp) available for VZ models (derived from the Spanish word veloz, meaning "fast"), and a range-topping VZ5 model with 2.5-litre turbo generating 390 PS (287 kW; 385 hp). The plug-in hybrid combination delivers an approximate range of 50 km (31 mi) with a full-electric mode. All versions come with a 7-speed DSG transmission.
