Tidal Mills, used the power of the tides to turn the rudders that then turned gears which then turned the grindstone used to grind down wheat (Newman, 2008-2016) . The blast furnace, thought to have been founded around 1100 AD, was able to melt down metals such as iron and steel for manufacturing purposes (Newman, 2008-2016) . Black powder weapons began to obsolete bows, swords and armor in the mid-14th century, though swords and bows and swords continued to be used as more progressions were made with the black powder technology (Newman, 2008-2016). The first mechanized printing press was first noted in 1439 allowing for greater mass-production of books and scrolls (Newman, 2008-2016). The mechanized clock, first mentioned in 1386, became a reliable time issue piece often used by churches and ministries (Newman, 2008-2016)
