This would be the year Jarvo started at T V and he was still using the same brush when he finished in 81.

My son got the sack for falling asleep on the job. Silly sod.

We call the Health and Safety brigade but they do have a point on some things. Three simple things on this pic that wouldn't please them. The turners, or lathe operators to the uninitiated of us, aren't wearing eye protection. The lathes dont have swarf guards attached (swarf, being pieces of metal waste coming from the metal being machined). The lathes are in line, or, directly behind and in front of each other, and should be offset, a danger of airborne metal from behind hitting the person directly in front.
