I've been in the Intertank area of that launch vehicle between the first and second stages and up in the Instrument Unit area which is between the Sky Lab and the shroud that would have covered the LEM in an Apollo launch.

As far as trivia goes, what was the 'milk stool' associated with the Sky Lab mission?

Ha! I remember the milk stool! it was a set of scaffolding to bring the top of the rocket up to the level of the gantry, because the rocket didn’t require one of the stages.
