"Machines"?

Latest comment: 8 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

What exactly are these "machines" that failed on the first attempt? I would have assumed that they were steam engines, but it makes it sound as if they were unsuccessful, and then a steam engine was brought in, and was a success. So what were the original machines? Animal-powered pumps? Waterwheels? Or is it describing early-type steam engines, which didn't work, and the final machines that worked were more advanced, double-acting Watts-type engine..45Colt 21:03, 22 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

So how did the pump engine work?

Latest comment: 1 month ago1 comment1 person in discussion

It's regrettable that, aside from mentioning the piston diameter, there is essentially no description of the pump engine which is the sole reason for this building's existance. Worse, none of the references given provide any detail (those which aren't 404); excepting the "Original Cruquius", which has some text but the Wayback Machine did not archive any of the diagrams, making the text of substantially less value. It would be a worthy effort if someone was to research this machine, and provide a detailed description of it in this (or a dedicated) article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:589:300:C7C0:ECD1:3FB4:3C3F:F53 (talk) 14:42, 14 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
