Too big!

Just for interest sake, I took this photo yesterday down at the Coffs Jetty. It is an autoclave, enroute to somewhere by sea. I copied in a (rough) picture of our Astra for size comparison. No wonder they can't transport these things by road. I can only imagine the size of the instruments to be sterilised...!

It said "autoclave" on the side, but not sure what for. Dental procedure for Godzilla maybe? :D

They want you to think it's an autoclave. It's part of a nuclear facility and we've just sold it to Iran. :shock: :shock: .

It may be a hyper-bar-baric chamber for Godzilla?
