All of them have doors and windows fitted with heavy duty, secure wire mesh on the inside.<\/p>\n What\u2019s different about the Innovation Lab is that the secure wire mesh is everywhere, even where it can\u2019t be seen. It runs inside the centre of the double skinned walls, within the double skinned floor, and throughout the double skinned roof. If the building had no wood or glass, then it would look like a giant Faraday cage.<\/p>\n The interior of the lab resembles a weird type of classroom or workshop. One set up for a mix of woodwork and metalwork, though with an occasional ordinary desk. The unmistakeable smell of creosote on the outside gives way internally to a smell of silicon carbide from the angle grinder discs, mingling with a fainter smell of light machine oil.<\/p>\n The store room at the far end looks like a wire prison cell, or a smaller Faraday cage inside the larger Faraday cage. Across the back wall there are metal cabinets with heavy duty locks, and there\u2019s one enormous cast iron safe. It\u2019s neither a sheriff\u2019s office nor a wild west bank, but it would look completely at home in a Western. The only bit that looks obviously scientific is the fume cupboard.<\/p>\n \u201cThis place is totally secure,\u201d says BarmyWaffle, \u201cand we operate a clear desk policy. At the end of every working day all the valuables are locked away. My own workbench, like all the others is cleared. The tools are cleaned and put back in the cabinets. My desk is cleared, and the only things left out are small items like my stapler, pencil sharpener, and rubber. I\u2019ve lost four pencil sharpeners this year. No idea why!\u201d<\/p>\n The two technicians pause to watch the visitors. They recognise all of them, though they only know KristalClear as the stable hand. BarmyWaffle introduces them, and then points towards a crossbow on the workbench as he explains more.<\/p>\n Previous<\/a> – Book1 Page20 \u2013 Next<\/a><\/p>\n Previous – Book1 Page20 \u2013 Next it has a shallow pitched roof which slopes just enough to handle the monsoon rains.
