    This is pretty typical for early 20th century mass production, even as far back as the 18th century with the start of the industrial revolution. People have been interested in making things in less time and for less money with less skilled labor for a long time.

  • Wow!...that's awesome! I know Austin was known for their inventive ways of speeding up the production process...this is really cool!

  • The Austin factory is filled with machines like this.

  • This is fantastic! I have recently become interested in CNC machines, I guess this was how production was done prior to the computer era. Genius. Is this typical of manufacturing practise or is this something unique?
