In later years, Mr.Ambroz installed a powered blower. It is the round object that can be seen above the saws.The belt connected it to a common driveshaft (the pulley seen at the left of the picture) which was in turn powered by a gasoline engine. As well as the blower, the common shaft drove a trip hammer, a grinder and a drill press.
