Did you know that, in the 1500s, most British people didn't even know that electricity existed. :o

Absolutely. But they could be a bugger to set more elevated.
And I recall the motor was connected via a disc manufactured of something like compressed fabric.
The punched paper reader was clever though.

It was a substantial wooden box with PO-type lever keys on it, and substantial knobs and buttons, and a meter at the top. :?

As I remember, Carpenter relays never needed much adjustment as they were extremely precise (and expensive). :yes:

I found it very easy. :yes:

I just found a mechanical device that moved up and down at such a speed, then turned it on its side. :clap: :bounce:
