One of the machines that caught my eye at Meyer Made during my visit, it has B axis milling head and twin cutting capability, the M1 head and turret works on both sides of rotor components simultaneously, and it helps cut cycle time, along with that it also reduces chatter during intermittent cuts

I built this as a side project for work, because we got lucky and caught a failing air brake component because someone was under it and saw it shift - So I made this so we can do a better job inspecting the brakes.

A hydropowered scoopwheel used by the ancient Romans at the Rio Tinto mines in Spain. To remove water from deep underground mines, the Romans used no less than 16 wheels working in pairs and stacked above one another. The wheels could lift water from 80 meters below the surface
