It could very well be that the previous owner was a collector who bought the machine from Puma, and set it up in that building to tinker with.

- jandrese 7y agoThat seemed like a very permanent installation for someone who is just tinkering with the machine. Running all of the cables under false floor is a huge hassle and makes fixing problems harder.
- LeonM 7y agoDon't underestimate the amount of work a true tinkerer is willing to perform to get the system running 'as it should have been'. But looking at the pictures of part 3 I have to conclude that the electrical installation was certainly not done professionally. In fact: the mains wiring wouldn't even pass inspection by German law. So tinkerer or not, I doubt this was the place where this multi-million machine (in Deutsche Marks, that is) would have been installed originally.
