Blamemeta@lemm.ee 10 months agoCan you build a metal laythe? Can you build one precise enough for a pump?

You don’t need to be super accurate for a basic pump. If you know the design you can get medieval blacksmiths to make the parts for you with close enough accuracy.

Yup. Even a cleverly designed “reverse” water wheel or Archimedes’ screw could do it with just a simple, inefficient steam engine.
