| Video Discription | The water powered machine shop of the Dupont gunpowder factory was a real special treat. As many of you know by now, i work in a modern machine shop and while some of our equipment dates back to WWII nothing is as old as the machinery of the Hagley Museum water powered machine shop. Some of the equipment in the shop: Lathe, Milling machine, planer, shaper, indexer, drill press, gear hobber (sort of), and assorted hand tools....and of course plenty of gears and pulleys...and you know how much i like gears! the shop and musem is located on the banks of the brandywine river in Wilmington DE. if you would like to know more i have provided some links below. what was most impressive about the shop is that many of the tools have remained basically unchanged to this day. the basic operation and techniques are the same, except the modern equipment is faster and more efficient but otherwise it is pretty much the same way we do things today. it was impressive to see the power of the river being transferred up the hill, from the river, hundreds of feet, through gears, ropes, shafts and belts and then put to work cutting metal to produce finished parts!!
