2. Inside the brick building

	Some sort of social premises were here. Junk left is typical 1990's factory stuff.
	Fire alarm center.
	This spacy hall may originally have been the mine's vehicle repair shop. It would suite well for that kind of use.
	Basic factory ceiling of the hall.
	The hall was fillt with various vehicles. None of them really in operation any more. Apparently the Finnish army have had even Benzes in their vehicle arsenal?
	Looks like collector items.
	Heavier hook crane..
	The truck bed is full of firewood, but the text reads: Finnish padding factory. Cool find, since we've visited one unit of this company, which is also abandoned. How the truck has ended this far from it's origin, would be interesting to know.
	Trip continues. This central part must have served the same purpose that it continues to serve, storing junk.
	Forklift batteries, paints and some other quite valuable looking stuff was stored here. I don't know who needs that stuff, here.
	Hard to say much about this hall, since it was totally empty. Anyway, the radiators had nice paint.
	So far the building's been quite boring, but the best section starts from behind this door.
	This, some kind of production hall was totally empty, but the attic with cool junk as well as the office section could be accessed from here.
	The hook crane was still functioning! Raiztlin messes with the crane [mpeg]
	Wall.
	Here's the office wing. Main office has probably been in the exploded building, for this is probably an expansion built later than the original buildings.
	Offices were emptied carefully. A big technology oriented company like Outokumpu, which also has lots of experience in abandoning sites, has probably developed a standard procedure of cleaning the premises totally.
	Lab was also disappointingly empty.
	One of the few not-removed items.
	These switches offer atleast decadence romanticism.
	A switch, pt. II.
	This faucet goes to the same category.
	A whole set of switch buttons.
	Only some decade without central heating, and the walls look like this.
	Fusebox had also rusted seriously.
	Looks like a doggy door, but there are no dogs in mine offices?? I relly can't figure what has used such a small door.
	New air circulation stuff has been acquired still in 1985.
	Okay, stuff that you find is often strange, but this: A portable toilet? Wtf did they need a portable toiler for? It has been marked "Vihanti" so that it's surely really been used here.
	Old tele-equipment is still around. The unit has followed well the advancement of technology: Already in 1960's they had automated processes, and in 1974 the first computer system was commissioned.
