Title: Old Ford Model T assembly video
Post by: Larry on October 07, 2010, 06:27:13 pm
A friend sent me this.  I thought it was cool enough to share and OSHA compliant.

No wonder why people were thin back then, they worked their a**es off.

I believe it was filmed at 18 frames per second instead of 24 fr/sec., which would make them a bit faster.  I'm trying to access brain cells from high school film class. :oh:  I may be wrong. :wow:

It could also be because some of the cameras were cranked by hand back then so the frames per second would vary based on who was shooting the film and turning the crank.
