Restored Air Raid Siren

[CalgaryPT]

Can't find the original vid where the guy ring rolls a new right side cage for this. But at least I found the one where it works.

I want one of these. My neighbours likely disagree....

That is really really cool!

I think you need one, too!

Are you the guy who's' wife banned him from building pulse jet engines?

Man, I can remember those sirens being tested when I was in elementary school and having to hide under our desks.
Like that was going save you LOL.

I never signed anything. Jeeze....

A siren was used to signal 12 noon daily back in the early 60's as I recollect. You could resurrect a tradition.
Gad I'm dating myself.

Yeah I remember the one by the Glendale Community Hall when I was a kid. That sound meant business.

That would be great to wake up my kids every morning! Or to drown out their complaining or their painful music! Pretty cool.

Until about 12 years ago, Magrath AB still had their air raid siren operating, noon and 9pm (curfew) sure got your attention and you had no excuse even several miles from home to get yer _____ in gear

In Victoria we had the 9:30 whistle and they would turn on the electric candle on the water tank.
