1800's inconveniences and invention

            In the 1800's, machines were just beginning.  Very few familys had the essentials needed for daily life, such as clothing, food, and money.  Most familys ran a farm and were barely able to provide food for themselves.  Each member of the family, if old enough, would work extremely long and hard everyday.  One of the most important things that people didn't have then that we have now was Lightbulbs.  Lightbulbs are crucial in the daily life of an average man.  They are used for lighting the house, when there is no daylight.  And for better seeing in certain areas of a building, where daylight can't reach.  Also elctricity was hard to comeby and most people did things by hand or by human force powered machines.

            If I were to create a new machine in that time, I would create a mobile electricity creator.  It would be named the "Wabbajack".  The Wabbajack's total purpose in life would be able to create electricity that could fuel a machine.  It would be the combination of handcranking, a moving magnet and copper wire surrounding it.  Each machine would be given a metal socket which you could plug the Wabbajack into.  Through this socket electricity from Wabbajack would fuel the machine and make it perform its task.  Simple and possible, since the creation of magnets from metals in the 1600's and their association with electricity in 1800's and the discovery of copper wire in 1877.
