History Lesson

The screw is one of six simple machines. The lever, wheel and axle, pulley, inclined plane and wedge comprise the other five. It is unknown when the screw was invented, but first appeared in ancient Greece. Early uses included the screw press and the Archimedes screw, a form of water pump used to move water from low-lying areas to higher areas. It is believed to have first been used a fastener in clocks during the 1400s.
