The size of those timbers!

A time and motion assessment is required I think. I have seldom seen so much material shuffling and walking about in a production unit.

May I ask, how many lock gates have you ever seen being made, and what is your Joinery experience.? The work pattern may look repetetive to an untrained eye, but I was very impressed with the quality of workmanship, particularly the attention to detail with the blind mortice and tenon joints.

I looked up "Temple lapse"  as I'd never encountered the phrase, but could only find links to the above video, except for one link titled Temple lapse of how the Stanley Ferry lock gates ... - MyPornVid    I haven't included the clickable link.  😲

 

So what's a temple lapse?

Why would a spellchecker have a problem with 'temple'? They're not sense checkers.

I meant a spellchecker would not substitute 'time' with 'temple'.

[David Mack]

But it might If the fat fingers had typed something closer to 'temple' than 'time'.

I recently so mangled my typing of 'accelerated' that autokorrekt changed it to 'accreted'.

Same as a time lapse but done while kneeling?
