Found more lineshafts at the Technisches Museum in Vienna!

Also a stack of books by some old favourites. No explanatory sign, feels like a wink and a nod from some museum curator to those of us who were into the Peak Oil movement ca 2007.

Doing some travelling. Finally got a chance to visit the historic machine shop by Skansen in Stockholm.

Always up for some lineshafts!

Apparently this is still in use in some capacity (maybe repairs?). Noticed some modern toolholders on the lathes and what looked like anachronistic metrology equipment, strategically turned to hide the displays.
