1890s' Most Unnecessarily Complicated Apple Peeler [Restoration]
Added 2019-09-18 00:21:24 +0000 UTCSome say, it's necessarily complicated.

It takes way too long to change all the adjustments that I hope you are right!

2019-09-20 02:44:03 +0000 UTCSuper complicated but it is interesting that it is doing 3 operations (if Iām counting right) simply by turning a hand wheel and it is all done mechanically.
2019-09-19 12:44:18 +0000 UTCThat's a really neat machine. I'm going to guess the apples were sorted by size by the time they go to these machines - probably one guy/one machine for each size grade of apple. Guy that runs it knows how to adjust it, but doesn't have to because he gets apples that are all in a pretty narrow range. Guy next to him gets bigger ones, guy on the other side gets smaller ones. Can't be too big an operation, though, else they'd be belt driven (as I think someone else mentioned). Great stuff. Thanks. Still probably hard to walk, though.

2019-09-18 02:14:35 +0000 UTCSeems entirely necessary. How else would restoration channels exist without such things!
