Roughly 130 years old, looks like it was made today. Unreal.

This whole thing was designed on paper and by oil and gas light.

Edit: Inkwells and shit. Steam-powered dildos.

That’s amazing. That looks almost identical to the breech of modern cannons that I used in the Field Artillery in the US Army.
