The equipment opened up
The photographs reveal the boiler, pump assembly, pipework and wiring. These detailed views make the internal workshop work visible rather than showing only the finished casing.
What the workshop documented
The supplied notes identify sediment coming from inside the boiler. The photographs show that material on a spoon, views through the boiler opening and the unit later enclosed and wrapped.
