James Hargreaves Spinning Jenny
James Hargreaves made the Spinning Jeny, he was an English carpenter and weaver, the Spinning Jenny was used for making more than one ball of yarn and thread faster, it was very helpful for clothing, shoes, hats, or anything that needed to use the material. -
Improvement of the Steam Engine
James Watt did not really make but did improve the Steam Engine. James Watt a Scottish engineer made the Steam Engine do much more. The Steam Engine was now used for powering transportation like Steamboats, Trains, and Factories. How it was helpful, transportation became much faster and there was a Mass production boost when the factories started. Faster transportation went on to Faster trades because of the increased speed, or just for Emergincies that happened over the waters -
Steam Engine Improvment
James Watt, who was a Scottish engineer made the Steam Engine but as an improvement for making transportation increased at a high rate and to be used in factories and mines and mills even which increased mas production. -
Elias Howe's Sewing Machine
Elias Howe invented the sewing machine, this was a very helpful invention because, before this invention sewing was of course done by hand and it was much harder than said to do, people no longer had to manually sew their clothing and more clothing was made at a faster rate -
Factories Smoke
in the 18th century, the factories would produce so much pollution making people not able to breathe correctly or getting fatal diseases which were a good cause of death during the revolution and people in the factories would die because they had to keep breathing the pollution in with no extra air -

The Machines replacing the young workers

Dynamite
Alfred Nobel created dynamite. Dynamite was much safer than using gunpowder to explode. Dynamite was used for caves and mountainsides and in the ground, these reasons were because caves could produce iron which led to steel which led to the mountainsides blown up to make train tracks leading to trains being made and used for transportation to another destination. -
Alfred Noble created Dynamite
Alfred Noble created Dynamite because it was much safer than black powder. This made an impact on the Industrial Revolution by Clearing paths for trains, using them for caves and to find goods easier and faster.
