The Siren Board

Here is my Wheelock KS-8228-L6 fire alarm after the first phase of restoration. Included in this phase was the restoration of build plates, replacement of rusty and corroded bolts and screws, a replacement of the set screws on the horns, a primer coat of oxide red, and some maintenance of the electronic systems.

Here is the operating result I got after lightly greasing an internal mechanism, and adjusting the horns and set screws. Mind your ears, the video is somewhat loud.

The next phase will involve fixing some of the rough spots on the horns, adding a second coat of primer, and finally painting it candy apple red.

Here is the paint scheme I am choosing for this siren. I will have some repairs to do on the paint currently, but overall it's nearly finished.
