WOW1 What a gold mine.
Re: Goold Shapley & Muir, New Ideal Power Mill
Was wondering about the ratio of the wheel turning vs the drive line rotation. I always wondered if the driveline turns faster than the wheel, or slower? Guess it needs power, but doesn't it also need speed?

I'm not sure yet about this one, but my other two Ideals that I have are 1 revolution of the wheel equals to 6 revolutions of the vertical shaft.
