What a curious thing.

I know people on here like weird and wonderful things so was wondering if anyone has seen one of these,I was helping an operator clear out a unit beside his arcade and this was under a tarpaulin.

I know it's a weight machine as I looked inside it but what surprised me was inside it also was something that looked like a record player if that makes sense.

 

[HHH]

Was there a record on it by the Stones?

 

[Pharo]

Ha ha here we go let's see how many songs we can get that's has to do with weight.

I know it's a weight machine as I looked inside it but what surprised me was inside it also was something that looked like a record player if that makes sense.

At a wild stab in the dark I would hazard a guess the tone arm on the record player is linked to the scale so that different weights line up with different tracks on the record which gives it its speaking effect.

Hopefully there is a max limit where the last track is just loads of screaming asking you to get off the scale and insulting you.

 

[Pharo]

Aye that's what I kinda of thought also nice interesting item, tried to find out about it last night on the internet and found it was a company in Glasgow that made it and they did all different ones but couldn't find a picture of this one though.
