Brian, all

I should have mentioned in the original answer that the machine is to test your capacity (pun intended) for taking an electrical current which involves your threshold of pain. You hold on to two metal knobs and turn one, which slowly increases the voltage to the highest level of pain you can stand which is indicated on the machine.

Hi, not sure since the picture is dark, but if that is a keyboard at the
bottom it might be Enigma a machine used to break the code used by the
Germans in ww2.  cul brian f.
