Sorting out my hard drive and found these pictures. Not sure where they came from originally.

Hi Pete,Thanks for posting those interesting pics,in first pic there is what seems to be a cog and chain arrangement made from old bike frames,from the way the chains are set up it looks to be high geared,perhaps a blower fan,?
Regards,
Don,
 
I wonder if it is an improvised fan to supply air to dugouts/tunnels or perhaps even a forge,it looks a bity battle scarred,

Don,
