Old Machinery

If something is working, don't throw it out! In Taiwan this is the way from motorcycles to people. But you do see something that might be in a museum in other countries. These two machines were still fixing the streets in Taipei, no retirement for the weary.


Not even a roof to protect the driver from the Taiwan sun!

How long has this guy been on the job?
On the arm it says: "City Conscience Crane".

No money for calibers, just keep measuring the same distance.
Some people can be too anal about their tools. As might be expected, this was a German Mercedes garage.
In Taiwan, plasterers and ceiling workers use this kid of ladder, they can move it around like being on stilts.
