This place looks like itas been toor up.
But I know that this place is hauted.

Axes used by firemen to bust down doors, most likeley. Somebody probabally found them in one of those big red wall glass things. you know bust them to get the fire estinguisher and stuff out. And had a little fun with them. But that's my rambling of today.

The correct term is "sheave", pronounced "shiv". Between the motor and the worm gear is the spring loaded break. You can just see the coil spring that holds the break. An electro magnet compresses the spring and lets the motor shaft spin.

N/G tubes are also used to relieve abdominal distention secondary to use of a Bag Valve Mask
(Ambu Bag). I'm glad they're disposable, I hate to think having a used one stuck into my nose!

Ummm...Disposable nasogastric (N/G) tubes. These tubes enter the stomach through the nose to administer food and medicine. Not fun.

possibly the material contained asbestos

ha, ha, perfect calibration, ha, ha.

That'll be the day. But, yes, TPTB do try.

Oh, that they do. To my knowledge the state inspects them once a year to insure they remain in perfect calabration.

They inspect scales?

I like the "Federal Emergency Administration of Public Works" on top. I wonder if it was a pre-cursor to FEMA. Either way, this is a great find! Love the relatively intact lettering on the marble background.

Looks like an inspection tag on the end. Kind of funny, given how long it's been since this scale has been inspected.

*pulls on white jacket* What can I say I'm only here to help. =)
