We made drawings, cut plywood with a fretsaw, built gears with toothpicks and covered the mill with straws - just like the original. Our mill is also fully functional; a little motor drives the blades which then spin while the gears rotate. When sugar ( substituting for the grain) is poured into the elevator it is lifted up, falls on to a chute and is ground by the millstones and finally falls to the groundfloor ( as"flour" ). |
