A waste of perfectly good pressure gauges

[Robbie260]

In the deep dark belly of the fort William under world in the Scary (maryborough pub) they have gone in for some weird and wonderful wastes of light fittings. Apologies for the bad pics was a tad inebriated at the time.

I think they look really cool

If the taps dimmed the lights it would be better!!

That I concede would be cool.

I like it.

 

[Robbie260]

I like it.

I can’t like it and laugh so had to choose

I think they look really cool

I see where you are both coming from but it’s kinda weird too starts to make the pub feel as though I should be at work.

Two units, but only one scale. Probably not a real pressure gauge!!

I like them

It's only old plumbing bits, nothing rare, exotic or probably even useful these days

The lens in the projector has an LED bulb behind it. Focus mechanism still works. Both lamps independently switched

Our local valve refurbish place has sole several bits for boiler level gauges to be made in to lights but never seen any one complete them?

It could be interesting if the gate is still operational in the valve

That could cause a predicament.

I'd better collect that microscope tout de suite, don't want you getting any fancy ideas about turning that into one too!

 

[Cuthy246]

If you are going to do this at least get the fancy bulbs!!

Look hard at the pictures. Neither is a valve. Both are four way crosses. The red handwheel is screwed into the middle on one and into a square-headed plug on the other.

The fit and finish is what bothers me. The stickers for the lights should be at the back, facing the wall. The screws holding the flange to the wall are horrible. The way the red handwheels are fitted is shoddy.

Is the hose plumbed in and working when you depress the lever, for extra freshness?
