  2. How to Make a Water Wheel

    Share Share Post
    The first thing you need is a sharp knife and a large turnip. You bore a hole through the turnip and put a stick through the turnip for the axle. Next you take the knife and cut tracks across the turnip like the wooden trows on a real wheel.
    Now you fix it across a place where water falls and it can run quote nicely.
