Some interesting water wheels etc I snapped recently in europe. The water power was used to make tools and equipment by the two "cottage factories" in the pics.

An old Hadfields mobile screening plant, located at Onslow WA.
Hadfields mobile crushing & screening plants were made in WA, with the crushers / screens themselves manufactured under licence from mainly overseas suppliers - in this case a Nordberg. This old screen is unusual in that it ran on a combination of coil and leaf springs, and is the oldest example that I have ever seen of a screen with an isolation frame (the bottom green frame - usually the screening unit is mounted directly to the support structure on spring or rubber suspension). ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

General motors Research Corporation developed the broad principle of syncromesh gearshift and Cadillac Division put it into production in 1928. Muncie did further development for large-volume production and by 1932 syncromesh was on all GM passenger cars.
