Attendees will learn how the story of RKL\, a groundbreaking firm in the field of weaponry\, fits into the broader context of water-powered industry that transformed New England prior to the Civil War. Particular focus will be given to the social impact of new technology\, and how the lives of Vermont workers were altered as traditional artisans moved into centralized\, mechanized workplaces. The tour will visit a series of sites around Windsor Village related to key developments in the RKL story\, followed by a talk inside the Armory. Bring your walking shoes! Length is about 2 miles \nBriand\, who moved to Windsor this past year\, has a long term interest in urban history in both large cities and rural factory towns. He previously developed walking tours on the history of Boston’s “lost neighborhood\,” the immigrant enclave of the West End\, the Civilian Conservation Corps in Greater Boston\, and the building of Route 128 through Boston’s urban forest\, the Blue Hills. \nTickets are $20\, or free for Members when you use your member discount code.

At the dawn of the Industrial Revolution in eighteenth-century England\, standards of measurement were established\, giving way to the development of machine tools—machines that make machines. Eventually\, the application of precision tools and methods resulted in the creation and mass production of items from guns and glass to mirrors\, lenses\, and cameras—and eventually gave way to further breakthroughs\, including gene splicing\, microchips\, and the Hadron Collider. \nSimon Winchester takes us back to origins of the Industrial Age\, to England where he introduces the scientific minds that helped usher in modern production: John Wilkinson\, Henry Maudslay\, Joseph Bramah\, Jesse Ramsden\, and Joseph Whitworth. It was Thomas Jefferson who later exported their discoveries to the fledgling United States\, setting the nation on its course to become a manufacturing titan. Winchester moves forward through time\, to today’s cutting-edge developments occurring around the world\, from America to Western Europe to Asia. \nAs he introduces the minds and methods that have changed the modern world\, Winchester explores fundamental questions. Why is precision important? What are the different tools we use to measure it? Who has invented and perfected it? Has the pursuit of the ultra-precise in so many facets of human life blinded us to other things of equal value\, such as an appreciation for the age-old traditions of craftsmanship\, art\, and high culture? Are we missing something that reflects the world as it is\, rather than the world as we think we would wish it to be? And can the precise and the natural co-exist in society? \nSimon Winchester is the acclaimed author of many books\, including The Professor and the Madman\, The Men Who United the States\, The Map That Changed the World\, The Man Who Loved China\, A Crack in the Edge of the World\, and Krakatoa\, all of which were New York Times bestsellers and appeared on numerous best and notable lists. In 2006\, Winchester was made an officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) by Her Majesty the Queen. He resides in western Massachusetts.

Almost from the beginning\, the United States produced arms in new\, and radically different\, ways\, relying upon machinery to mass produce guns when others still made them by hand. Leveraging their technological advantage\, American gun-makers produced guns with interchangeable parts and perfected new types of small arms\, ranging from revolvers to repeating rifles. \nThe federal government’s staggering purchases of arms during the Civil War stimulated the development of fast-firing breech-loading rifles and metal-cased ammunition. When\, in 1865\, it became clear that every country in the world had re-equip itself with modern weapons\, the Americans had an overwhelming head start. Salesmen from Remington\, Winchester\, Colt and Smith & Wesson —- and from lesser-known firms\, too – traveled the world marketing their guns\, dominating – or\, perhaps\, even inventing – the international arms business. American gun-makers sold rifles and side-arms by the millions and cartridges by the billions to great powers\, restive colonies and fading empires alike. Adding a new element to the unstable global balance of power\, American gun-makers affected the course of history. \nGeoffrey Stewart received A.B. and A.M. degrees from Brown University and his legal training at Harvard Law School. He is co-author of The Anointed\, a history of the rise to prominence of three influential New York City law firms during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Mr. Stewart has written articles for law reviews and legal publications\, as well as two privately published books. He is currently at work on a book about the United States’ confederation period (1781–89). He lives in Bethesda\, Maryland. \nTICKETS URL:https://americanprecision.org/events/author-talk-geoffrey-stewart/ LOCATION:American Precision Museum\, 196 Main St\, Windsor\, VT\, 05089\, United States CATEGORIES:Museum Special Event,Speaker ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://americanprecision.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/arming-the-world-square-cover.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240727T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240727T150000 DTSTAMP:20260421T044152 CREATED:20240520T185759Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240520T191435Z UID:4191-1722074400-1722092400@americanprecision.org SUMMARY:CodeCraft: Unleashing Creativity with Makey Makey DESCRIPTION:We will be utilizing the Makey Makey coding system to transform everyday household items into electronic controllers.
