3. Factory, pt. 2
colourline

A production hall on the upper floor. Considering this was one of the quite few match factories in Finland, the place seems small.
dm-tpe_05jul_tikkis27 Situation update tells that graffiti and somebody with a sleeping bag have found this hall.
dm-tpe_05jul_tikkis29 Possibly office and supervising rooms.
Emptied also here. Seems that the car business didn't need the upper floor so they've just left it empty.
dm-tpe_05jul_tikkis23 Meter panel, work of Sähkötyö Oy.
dm-tpe_05jul_tikkis26 Oldish bottle of lemon soda lies somewhere on a shelf.
This lavatory became a junk storage.
The yellow room.
Empty room with very weak hanging rope.
The rooms are pretty high, probably 5 meters or so. That fire extinguisher we didn't test, and on the next visit it was still in this same room.
A switch similar to the one downstairs in a small cabinet.
Seems that the factory, even if quite small, had own food service for labour. This must be its' main kitchen.
dm-tpe_05jul_tikkis16 Kettles suitable for big amounts of porridge and soup.
The cold store is a product of Huurre.
dm-tpe_05jul_tikkis18 Nice result of tagging.
dm-tpe_05jul_tikkis19 Another lavatory.
dm-tpe_05jul_tikkis20 Peeling paint and graffiti.
dm-tpe_05jul_tikkis21 New stuff when filmed.
This room has been resided in a long term. There were so much traces of everyday life that it must be either a squatting action or some homeless bunch of people.
There's a stove for cooking in the middle. Such installations could easily burn some other kind of building, but not this brick-concrete factory.
White wine has been consumed here in large amounts. Numerous bottles remained around the room.
dm-tpe_05jul_tikkis17 In addition to white wine, multi-langual literature has belonged to squatters' life.
dm-tpe_05jul_tikkis22 Or could it be a trick? I don't believe many people who are into living in empty buildings can actually read books in ten to twenty different languages.
That's the elevator. It's stuck on this floor and fillt with odd junk. There's an old oven, a radio tube amplifier and much more.
Last comes the attic, which has been locked with a broken lock for long.
The attic is full of interesting junk to dig. Some of it originates from the match factory, some probably not.
The folders were mostly empty.
