Model of a single stamp mill, driven by an undershot wheel, with only a bowl or chest for ore. The water wheel has a wooden cover which prevent the water to leave the wheel to early. The shovels consist of two angularly assembled boards, which reminds of the cells of the ones used in a breastshot wheel. The model is numbered "224 1/10".
