Antikythera Fragment #6 - Making A Hand Powered Drill (Patreon)
Content
The precision of the holes in the Antikythera mechanism is one of the most fascinating aspects of its construction. In this video I make a tool that is capable of creating holes to the required standard, yet is consistent with the level of technology known to have existed in the period.
Plans for the tool can be downloaded as a zip file here (11Mb): http://www.clickspringprojects.com/uploads/3/8/2/2/38221101/clickspring_pump_drill.zip
Please enjoy :)
Cheers,
Chris.
