Now if can answer this one like he did the last one then he officially becomes my hero. Damn, if anybody can answer this one they’ll become my hero.
Are you able please to give me the following information:-
1)What were the names of the main types of machinery which would have been used in a tin box manufacturing company in London during the 1890s?
2) Would such machinery have been powered by electricity?
3)Which of such machines had the highest accident rate?
Step aside (oh, you !)
High praise indeed, but I cannot meet this challenge. If I remember correctly, Thomas Edison first harnessed the power of electricity around 1885. Although today I would not be surprised if a technology can spread throughout the world very quickly, I would hesitate to think that was the case in the pre-internet days of 120 years ago. (I mean they were so backward, they did not even have a colour tele!)
I would suspect that most manufacturing methods could result in a fair bit of accidents. But, in the words of Quasimodo, without data, it is just a hunch.
