A treasure trove of nearly forgotten technology. Monowheels, rocket powered bicycles, steam vehicles (even aeroplanes), fluidic/pneumatic technology, mechanical computers, evaporative engines, and much more.

A wonderland of quirky, abandoned technologies.

A delightful compendium of obsolete contraptions.
Herald rated 15 months ago
Fascinating range of old, unlikely technologies, including combat cutlery, hot-air-driven gramophones, the ammonia motor, and Herr Richter's alarming rocket-powered bicycle of 1931.

...An interesting section of the Self-Site. This is a museum of retro-technology which is very interesting. Many of the technologies in use today described as their earlier incarnations. Things like steam-lawnmowers,a propeller-driven car and an underwater cannon.
