    An older shop...

    On a recent trip to Costa Rica, I visited this shop. Everything is powered by the waterwheel.... Thought some of you might enjoy the pictures.

    Thats pretty amazing, I seen a photo of a simular setup in a woodworking book once. I beleive it was taken in the late 1800's or early 1900's. I had no ideal countries were still using simular setups.
