Ahaha! Burning rubber? Nope, mostly just the faint and familiar smell of solder, sometimes a solvent like acetone, or at the moment, the whiff of Wellseal, which is pretty pongy for a living environment, but the balcony door is wide open, and so are the windows.

There's a very quiet integral extractor fan in the ceiling, which operates at night and does a great job of restoring the room to odourless by the morning!
