RE: Power in 1918 - Exploring Steem Shovels
Between putting all those wood planks down, pushing it around (it doesn't appear to drive itself), keeping the boiler hot, and operating the arm it seems like you could do the same work faster using a crew of workers with hand shovels. I guess it makes up the time once it's set up and operating out of the same spot
I didn't think of it this way, but you are right, sometimes technology does make more work for us!
