1910 Carpet Weaving Technology.

 This is the most amazing semi automatic carpet weaving machine located at the Wool Museum in Geelong Victoria. The gentleman here is working at the front of the machine with all the punch cards revolving above his head. The carpet is appearing below the machine at his waist level.

 This is the length of the platform supporting all the reels of wool yarn that are being used to weave the carpet. The work area is at the far end in the distance.

 Here is the upper level rows of yarn spools and the lower level can just be seen through the grating below.

The steady stream of yarn being fed into the machine can be seen here, although the photo is slightly out of focus.
