Le Bûcheron - The Woodsman

Pellerin Nr. 538,1874/75

Size: 15 x 8 x 32.5 cm

Sand power

The woodsman cuts wood with the axe.

The sand moves a paddlewheel. One side is constructed as an eccenter which moves a lever up and down. Lever and arms are connected by a shaft. So the rotation of the paddlewheel is transformed into the oscillating movement of the arms.
