Any industrial engineering fans here?

I like machines to be big:
I thought that the following image was a ray traced construction but found that it was a real steam engine, one of five in a pumping house in the USA

Proper Steam Punk!

Funnily enough, I was looking for a good picture of the kinds of food processing machinery I'm involved with (in the factories where I work) so I looked at my former employers website (who built much of the kit) noticed a suspicious looking cyclist hiding amongst the stainless steel!

That photo is nearly 18 years old

Great thread.

I like the Handtmann and Tipper Tie food processing machines we have at work.

It’s a pity we don’t see more about British Engineering. I would be happy to see TV programmes about the great things that we still make here rather than all the nonreality stuff they do show. Just received an email asking me if I wanted a booklet explaining why I should be investing in Asia. If there was a bit more investing in the UK then we wouldn’t be in such a mess. Like the video. Pity there wasn’t an apprentice or old guy with an oily rag though.
