But think about it, weaving is something the primitives of Huaxia Country could do, yet it gave Ma Lin such a headache that it took him two whole years to figure it out.
So he can't underestimate the difficulty of a technology.
His own idea is that if they can make a wooden loom, they should also be able to make a water-powered loom.
Except for threading, fully automatic.
And he was stumped by this trigger and termination loop.
He just wants a device that can precisely terminate an event.
For instance, as mentioned, a claw grabs a rod.
It needs to open at the precise moment the rod completes its entire reciprocating motion and break contact with it.
It doesn't open slowly, bit by bit.
Instead, it opens suddenly.
Alright, since there can be a metal slider to make it close, there can also be a metal slider to make it open, one in the vertical direction, one in the horizontal direction.
Is the problem with this device completely solved?
Still lacking somewhat.
