Basically the water runs down a wooden half log and onto the small diameter water wheel causing it to rotate about 6 times per second. This powers a paddle fan in a housing that blows air into a furnace causing the fire to burn faster and hotter than by natural draft alone. The idea is that I might one day power iron smelting and forging with it, replacing the manual labour required for the hand powered blower. About Primitive Technology: Primitive technology is a hobby where you build things in the wild completely from scratch using no modern tools or materials. These are the strict rules: If you want a fire, use a fire stick - An axe, pick up a stone and shape it - A hut, build one from trees, mud, rocks etc. The challenge is seeing how far you can go without utilizing modern technology. I do not live in the wild, but enjoy building shelter, tools, and more, only utilizing natural materials.
