Hi folks,
last december I took some good pics at the Elektra plant.
Today I wanna share a couple of them with you.
This is not any kind of adverting, they don't need it. It's just what you can see inside if you visit them in Dosson di Casier, nearby Treviso. :D
Enjoy and Ciao!

Interesting shots.

Which machine was in the shop employees break room? I imagine it was either really nice or a Frankenstein beast assembled with leftover bits from the factory floor.
