Thwick-thwack Thursday with a vengeance... Burn Vengeance, that is😁 My last day off, felt like playing with something fancy and this piece from Burn Knives (Paul Panak) definitely fits the bill😎

Relay logic at its finest 🤓
Spent years working on elevator fire recall systems as a fire alarm tech. The fun days of shooting the shit with the elevator boys lol.
Those elevator techs make some damn good money, but it's a very niche trade, one that's unionized.
I have two amazing guys that have been keeping that thing running well past it’s years!
 
Today I went to work in the industrial area of St. Petersburg.
Pictured is the Sea Canal. According to it, ships from the Baltic Sea get to St. Petersburg.

There is a cargo port on its shore.

Behind it are various plants and factories. For example, at this alcohol plant in 1927, the chemist Lebedev produced artificial rubber for the first time in the world.

Before the revolution, the bridges to the factories across the canal were movable. Then everything was rebuilt. But here is one post of a mechanic, who was supposed to raise the bridge when the ship approached, is still preserved.

The house of the buoy management has also been preserved.

From here they controlled the lights of the buoys that marked the fairway.

And this is what the factory church looks like now.

In 1925 it was rebuilt. There was a leisure center for working youth.

Beautiful architecture.
Very much appreciate you taking the time to photograph, narrate and share
 
Seeing some discussion of the Hati on washers over at the Bears' Den this morning got mine out the drawer and into my pocket for Throwback Thursday. I broke down a bunch of boxes over in our combo home gym/youth basketball world headquarters while tidying up and finishing a couple odds and ends after the lighting project there. I wrote a little and put up some pics over at the Den, so I'll stop here and just a few from after cleaning all the tape gunk off the blade.

This last pic's indeed post adhesive-removal but also post getting stump rot on the blade spine while taking the pic above.
