Do you have a laboratory in your lavatory?
The place is a treefarm with a big shop in the middle of it. Trees and all, the “lavatory” part causes creativeness. No actual laboratory here but in manufacturing stuff a lot of random chemistry, and testing, gets used. Steel and aluminum get colored and preserved, along with various other materials. Heat treating happens also. The “blue room” is usually referred to as the witchcraft place. The guys who deliver stuff here are a jumpy bunch who mind their manners.
And there is a pretty decent technical library, or libary, that leaves few technical-type questions un-answered.
