Wisconsin Stories: Really Big Stuff

Special | 26m 44sVideo has Closed Captions

Meet some of the people behind the industrial development of Wisconsin.

Wisconsin has a longstanding reputation for making huge, one-of-a-kind industrial machinery. Home to a concentration of skilled craft workers, Wisconsin has produced such "really big stuff" as turbines for massive dams, steam engines for ships, huge gears and drive trains, paper-making machinery, mammoth mining draglines and giant boilers and cranes.
