Human-Powered Machines

Tue · Oct 20 · 10 AM–1 PM · Umbrello Hay Field, Lincoln, MA

Before small motors were cheap, a lot of useful work was done by legs. Those machines were refined for decades and then mostly forgotten, and the designs still hold up.

We work from published designs — Low‑Tech Magazine, Farm Hack and others — look at what makes them work, and demonstrate what we have.
