Sir Richard Arkwright (Old Style 23 December 1732 New Style 3 January 1733 � 3 August 1792), was an Englishman who, although the patents were eventually overturned, is often credited for inventing the spinning frame - later renamed the water frame following the transition to water power. He also patented a carding engine that could convert raw cotton into yarn. A self-made man, he was a leading entrepreneur of the Industrial Revolution. Arkwright's achievement was to combine power, machinery, semi-skilled labour, and a new raw material (cotton) to create, more than a century before Ford, mass produced yarn. His skills of organization made him more than anyone else, the creator of the modern factory system, especially in his mill at Cromford. |
![Our second project, but with a different group [ except for Khattiyuth ]. This is our most recent one. The title sounds like a Harry Potter title XD I have to admit this one is funnier than the last one, I didn't write the script lol. Took us about 6 hours in all to do this: 3 hours of filming 3 hours of editing FUN FACTS: -Khattiyuth's top hat is made out of card stock, tape, and colored with ONE black marker. -For 4 hours, I could not get ANYTHING to work. -We used two cameras to film. -Khattiyuth had a mustache, but it kept falling off. -Kenneth and Khattiyuth were actually singing Don't Stop Believing before we started filming. And they weren't half bad either. -Before, Kenneth would face backwards towards Khattiyuth and it looked like he was asking for surprise buttsex. XD -We did this whole project in one day. -The very last blooper, yeah. I was standing on the ledge in front of the east side of the auditorium and KENNETH PULLED MY LEG DOWN AND I NEARLY FELL. If he hadn't caught me, I would've busted my head open and freakin' sued him . . . AND SHANKED HIM. -I'm a terrible British person. Lol. I DON'T OWN THE MUSIC.](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/pDcvIZVocls/0.jpg)
