All you old-timer computer guys who brag about using punch cards should see the loom that used punch cards long before that...

For more info, see this page on the Jacquard loom.

K showed the Greenfield Village employee how to operate the 1917 Brown & Sharpe Turret Lathe to make a small candlestick holder.

This blurry video shows it in action. If you'd like to own one, I saw a few for sale when I was Googling around...

After K taught the guy how to run it, I gave it a spin, so to speak. In this picture, the employee appears to have some doubts about my abilities.

I wish I had a better picture of this machinist's chest, but I couldn't get close enough. Someday I'm going to make a scaled down version of this.

For all you woodworkers who obsess over things "lining up" and "looking nice", this piece of shop storage is functional, and the drawers move in and out as expected. That's all you need.

This lathe, seen here in the Village's roundhouse, is used to create parts for repair of steam locomotives. After hours, it is leased to a local matchstick factory.

Sure, they've got a lot of wrenches, but can they change my bike tire?

One of your larger reciprocating saws, as seen in the sawmill. This sawmill isn't operational, which is too bad, because I would really liked to have seen this in action.
