***Tip : Tap on photo to hide/show text.*** There’s a water wheel here with a pulley going up to the shaft, that then feeds a series a pulleys and we’ve set it up in the museum to show a lathe being operate, shaft runs the length of the workshop with series of pulleys to operate machinery, this would typically run the entire length of most workshops.
