·I'd say that place is a stack of OSHA violations a mile deep, but I'm not sure that OSHA or the mile are applicable where you are. Maybe the mile 😉
Not OSHA, but the owner never invited whatever local gumint department was supposed to check for Elven Safety to visit. I was apprenticed in the steel industry and was used to molten iron in channels in the floor, overhead cranes swinging loads about, swarf spiraling off machine tools, etc. And then I worked on our company construction sites 😲 So although my hands were lily-white from many years of being in the software business it was always my practice when entering any workshop or factory to check around carefully.
It would have been nice to have been warm in there:
The thermocouple was a few cm from a running injection-moulding machine set to 250C. (The baddest bastard, bastard machine in the place.)
For the benefit of any Elven Safeties reading this, the owner died in 2015 and the whole place was demolished in 2018. I did broker a deal for the machine tools but I ain't saying where they are 'cos the place they are in now is nearly as bad 😜
