Toward the end of the video you can see the large/linked punch-card system used for these old weaving looms. As in other videos I thought twice about editing out the part where the worker was asking for money (he's making a pinching motion with his fingers on one hand) and then figured that it was real-life so why not leave it there? I can't blame them for asking except it is forbidden by their boss...
