Bentall Chaffcutter
an example of Appropriate Technology
Just a pre-breakfast workout turning oat straw into chaff for the goats.
No need to tell us it needs an oil and the blades sharpened. She's on the list for some serious TLC, but what a wonderful tool - augmenting the human body and yet giving us an opportunity to save on gym fees... (haven't seen the inside of a gym in just shy of 40 years). The idea of expending energy to achieve nothing beyond exercise seems like... an
exercise in futility.
