81. The Industrial Revolution
    Probably Maudslay s greatest protege was James Nasmyth (18081890), whose inventionsinclude the milling machine and a planing machine or shaper.

    Extractions: [Note: World Population in 1700 was about 625 million; in 1980 it was over 4 billion] Machine Tools The Newcomen and Watt Steam Engines Thomas Newcomen (1663-1729) was an English blacksmith, who invented an atmospheric engine. Steam was admitted to a cylinder, condensed by a jet of cold water, and the vacuum created on the inside of the cylinder allowed atmospheric pressure to operate a piston, which was forced downward on its working stroke. In partnership with Thomas Savery who had patented a steam pump along similar lines in 1698, Newcomen and his other partner, John Calley, built their first engine on the site of a water-filled mine shaft in 1712. Newcomen engines were slow and inefficient, but they were better than any other device yet invented for pumping water out of mines. The Steam Locomotive and the Steamboat Watt's patent for the separate condenser covered the use of high pressure steam, but since he was fearful of boiler explosions and bursting pipes he refused to develop such an engine. He even went so far as to suppress the working model of a high pressure engine, made by his assistant William Murdock in 1785. When Watt's patent expired in 1800, there were other inventors in England and America who advocated the use of high pressure steam. Richard Trevithick (1771-1833) had gained his experience around steam engines in the Cornish mines. By 1801, he had perfected his designs for a cylindrical boiler and high pressure engine and built several full size steam carriages which were patented and run on the English roads. During the first decade of the l9th Century, he built several more steam carriages, known as locomotives, which were used for hauling coal and ore out of the mines.

    Extractions: Nasmyth James Nasmyth was born in Edinburgh in 1808. His father was interested in civil engineering and architecture and encouraged his son to share these interests with him. Whilst at school James was friendly with a boy whose father owned an iron foundry, which James visited on Saturday afternoons. James began exploring the development of the steam-engine at the age of 15 by building his own models and selling them. In 1829 he took a working model plus drawings of a small steam engine to London to show Henry Maudslay the famous tool maker and engineer. Maudslay was impressed by his skill and took him on as an apprentice. Maudslay died suddenly in 1831 and by the end of the year James returned to Edinburgh to produce his own engineering tools. He moved to Manchester in 1834 to set up his own tool making business, his works,known as the Bridgewater Foundry, were beside the canal and the Liverpool-Manchester railway. It was here that he designed and built his famous steam hammer, described as one of the most perfect of artificial machines and noblest triumphs of mind over matter that modern English engineers have yet developed In 1837 the Great Western Steam Co. asked James Nasmyth to supply specific tools that were required to build the engines of the

    James Nasmyth. 1808 1890. Engineer and inventor. Born in Edinburgh and youngestson of the eminent landscape artist, Alexander Nasmyth (1758 - 1840).  
    http://www.geo.ed.ac.uk/scotgaz/people/famousfirst272.html
    
    Extractions: James Nasmyth Engineer and inventor. Born in Edinburgh and youngest son of the eminent landscape artist, Alexander Nasmyth (1758 - 1840). He started a foundry business and became a pioneer in the design and building of steam-powered machine tools, including a steam hammer, planing machine, pile-driver and steam lathe. His tools were used widely in major engineering projects across Britain. Nasmyth built a steam carriage in the late 1820s which he ran along the Queensferry Road in Edinburgh but did not pursue the idea which he felt had no commercial value. Nasmyth was also an enthusiastic amateur astronomer.

    Extractions: A focal point to one side of the tube of a telescope with an altazimuth mount . It is formed by placing a third mirror (tertiary) so as to direct the beam along the altitude axis and through a hole in the supporting trunnions. Nasmyth foci enable bulky instruments to be mounted on a permanent platform that needs to rotate only in azimuth; they are commonly used with large modern telescopes, especially for spectrographic work. Named after the Scottish engineer James Nasmyth (1808-1890), best known for his invention of the steam hammer.
