Original film of WW2 No4 (and Pat14 Mk2) woodwork production by H Morris & Co Glasgow

Not much health & safety legislation in those days: the women with their forearms immersed in linseed oil for much of the working day.

That, and the lack of proper guards and other protective measures around the tooling machines - I was crinching and waiting to see someone to lose an eye....or a finger

In fact, I ended up counting fingers and eyes, but I don't think that a clip of good old 9-fingered, one-eyed Hamish (or Morag) would have added to the film too much...
