Antique wall-mount telephone - generator and bell restoration
Again in my old lab, restoring a 1930s German wall mount telephone. Sadly, it lacks a handset... but the generator, bell and hook switch are still there, so I tried to get them to work. Shorting the line terminals allows the phone to ring its own bell!
