Whats that Paddy ?

[Johnny Bravo]

I love machinery like that,makes you wonder about the past and who came up with the idea.Must have been a good design seeing it hasnt been replaced......

[SamS]

JB- this machinery was designed many times by different inventors in the early 1800's, but John Heathcoat was the inventor that designed the most improved Bobbinet machine that is the only Bobbinet machines used today, by us. Even the factory I work in was built in something like 1825 ..

I have no doubt that in the up coming years somewhere like china will catch on, and we'll be finished ..
