00:00 I'm Adam Marriott, I worked on this mill as a traditional millwright and helped repair

00:11 the water wheel here with our sponsors the Millington's.

00:17 We saw that Adam needed help with a lifting beam and so I said to Julian, I said you know

00:22 we could give him a hand. Julian's got a mill himself, he's very keen to help so we came

00:28 up with the idea of extending the spindle. Julian engineered a device, phase one the

00:35 jack wouldn't quite fit so phase two of this he made it a little bit longer and unfortunately

00:40 we didn't see it used for the first time but apparently it works very well and we're quite

00:47 pleased with it aren't we Julian? Yeah very pleased.

00:53 Jacked the wheel up beautifully, all 30 tonnes of it and yeah we had it spinning for Mills

00:59 weekend for the first time in four years.

01:02 Very good.
