Very nice line shaft powered shop! Keep an eye on the little fella. He's lucky to have a dad-grandpa like you. Introduced at an early age. I'm building a machine shop that's just about complete. Nothing is guarded so awareness at all times! I really enjoyed your video. Make more!

Either, I am not crazy for wanting a shop like that... Or I am, but there are others just as crazy. Love it!

Amish have been doing that same concept, and still doing it. No matter what it's so cool to watch. Thanks for sharing your shop.

My grandfather had a wood mill in Philadelphia, Pa. in the late 30s, early 40s. It had a coal fired steam engine and ran belts up three story's. They made high end display cabinets for all the major department stores and shipped them all over the country. The name of the mill was England and Miller. When my father would take me there the belts, wheels and noise would scare the hell out of me.

I love the idea of a steam powered wood shop. Woodworking produces a lot of scrap waste toss into stove for boiler.

All the safety comments noted and agreed. I noticed this was 2 years ago, why no more videos? I encourage you to take a look at Dave Richards Old Time Steam Machine Shop and see some of the things he's shared. Plus your young assistant is now likely almost a teenager and would likely enjoy videoing and posting a lot of what goes on at the shop? Regardless thanks for sharing your little corner of historical heaven.

I'm trying to setup my 1st lineshaft powering a table saw. Where can i learn about the bearings the shaft goes thru. My bearings are marked BG and it seems the shaft turns in a oiled cast iron bore. Is this correct? See my last video. thx.

After seeing a small outdoor wood shop in Silver Dollar City, I wanted to see how it would work on a larger scale, this shop is fascinating! It would definitely require a lot more awareness than most carpenters have these days... it's not like you could have a sawstop cut power in milliseconds here, lots of momentum in that system.

is it a museum or a working shop? It is very nice either way.

This is an excellent video representation of a line-shaft. Would you allow the North Berrien Historical Museum access to this video for exhibit purposes?

@bobberghorst8417 7 жыл бұрын

nbhsmuseum please know that you are more than welcome to use this in any way you See fit. Fine Woodworking Magazine also did a video of the shop - Not sure what their policy. please know also that you are welcome anytime to visit the shop if you might be in the Zeeland area.

Dan/Bob what is the machine with rounded cover at 1:45 on the left side?

@kyledugger1858 2 жыл бұрын

I was wondering the same thing. It looks like a wool picker

What is the machine to the left at 1:39? It looks like a picker used for processing wool?

@bobberghorst8417 2 жыл бұрын

It is indeed a picker - this one came out of Baker Furniture in Holland Michigan and was used to the pull (card) the long mane and tail hair ( horse) for upholstery. Thanks, Bob

Can’t tell me you couldn’t design that yourself using modern methods and materials... still run it of a H/M engine. Steam water hell even wind!!

There are efficiency issues regarding friction loss due to all the belts and pulleys plus if this were a modern show it would be and OSHA nightmare.... Infact this even existing these days they must be running the shop of burning OSHA manuals, hence my love for it. Make no mistake I prefer the sounds of this shop over that of the screeching of a router or any other electric motor. Personally I would love to build a shop like this where it's a violent collision of old and new. So like modern dust collection and safety, but vintage machines.

Its only dangerous if you're stupid and not keep full awareness of your surroundings when comes to these 19th century workplaces. Its common sense and you couldn't exactly be picky on where you work back in those old days.

That is a horse.hair picker. these were used to pull or "card" the long hair from the tails and manes of horses and separates these from the short hair and debri that came from the slaughter house. The long hair was used for stuffing in upholstery.

Although the machines, line shafts and counter shafts are all collected from various factories, the shop as a whole would be representative of a turn off the century shop.
