Rolling Roman Iron for Segmentata Plates
#19
Had the Romans invented metal gears?

I've seen some stuff made from interlocking wooden pegs mounted on offset wheels, which really amounts to the same thing.

Just asking, not quarrelling. It seems like some kind of grain grinding mill variant could work....
