Haushahn Relay Machine Room 

Thank you for the comment!

Thank you for the Comment. The little red wheel next to the motor is the floor selector, it gives the relay controller where the lift is, since it doesn't have memory for that. Think of it just like a rotary switch, it moves along with the lift car and every position represents a floor.

Oh yeah, we can. I'm a former controls engineer and could design and help build it. It's very simple compared to what we have these days.

@@JarheadCrayonEater You, sir, are one of the people that keep the motor of the world running. I salute you. Very few people know what it takes to do this and I am glad you and those like you are still out there. I was a bubblehead, nuclear machinist mate aboard one of the first nuke boats ever built, so I know whereof I speak. Love your handle. Have a good day, week, month, year and life. Semper Fi. Cheers, D.

@@fodank, heck yeah Brother! I'm also a former Turbofan Test Engineer for Rolls-Royce, and a calibration tech in the Marines and for Lockheed. Love the stuff! My MOS was 6492, and there was no lateral MOS. So, if I ever did want another one, I'd have had to join the Navy and go the same route you did in nuclear, but I wanted to be able to talk trash the rest of my life so I stayed in the Marines. 🤪 That job you did definitely sounds awesome! Thank you, Brother, and Semper Fi back! Now, where did my crayons go?

@@JarheadCrayonEater When my son joined the navy he wanted to go the submarine route at first but I told him that though I had no regrets and the job was one that you could look back on and say, yeah, I did that and not many others have, it was still a grind with not much in the way of good liberty ports. That and the knowledge that a chick issuing volleyballs at special services was earning just as much as I was and working half the hours, I bailed early. Was a wind farm maintenance tech for a few years. Went on to become the pilot of a tourist submarine out of Kona, Hawaii, then on to night tech at Keck observatory on the Big Island. Seen a lot, have great memories and lots of good sea stories to tell. My son chose the airman route and ended up air crew chief CPO in the Poseidon squadrons out of Kaneohe. He saw far more of the world. than I ever did and retired with a great. network of friends. Works in the satellite comms industry now, double dipping, so to speak. Few people know how the work of the world gets done, but you and I and he are some of them. Tech people will never starve. Good luck finding those crayons. Cheers, D.
