I will post some more views of this raising but is there anything that any of you out there looking in, may want to know about the process of the reconstruction.
The stone mill that you noticed in a previous post was the grist mill reconstruction associated with the driveshed and small barn
The whole process was well over the million dollars at that time, the Grist mill waspowered by water as well as a steam engine each of 45 horsepower.
One of my roles as supervisor of restoration was to put in place the water wheel and its associated shaftings complete with babitted bearings, The stone grinding wheels, (which was a story in its self), the steam engine with its 8 foot flywheel, and the mill machinery.
