    The mechanism somewhat dupcates the Logrithmic or Exponental curve which have a unique relationship betwenn X and Y which no other method of free hand drawing or tracing can duplicate. It may sound irrelevant now, however consider the time in which it was designed. No one had ever seen a true Log or Exponential curve at this point, they were approximated however no accurate representation was ever demonstrated. We take a lot for granted in our digital time, just look at a slide rule demonstration video. It is likely that anye reading this has a parent, grandparent, or relative that had to use them in school/life

    "In 1728 the Italian scholar Poleni took up the theme again. He designed a tractional instrument (see Plate 10 [this mechanism]) and sent copies of it to three colleagues. In his covering letter he argued, again, that by means of his instrument the problem of the *quadrature [area] of the hyperbola* was now for the first time solved in a geometrically acceptable manner" www.gewina.nl/journals/tractrix/bos89.pdf It seems the context of this device is the ancient topic of Euclidean geometry, about whether things can be constructed with the most basic physical tools, (straightedge and compass) rather than by arithmetic. These devices construct transcendental curves without arithmetic, but they're still not a straightedge and compass, so some 18th century controversy perhaps. Or as that article so nearly puts it, "The motif of tractional motion as mechanical legitimation of transcendental curves"

    You are one of a kind, and I loved the video! What an honor to make a museum piece! I was glad to see your lathe in use. I will be building one similar to it at some point and can't wait to do so. Thanks for the wonderful video, and all those to come!
