11. Invention Importance Textile Mills Interchangeable Parts Steamboat Telegraph Steel plow Mechanical Reaper Threshing Machine

12. Invention Importance Textile Mills Interchangeable Parts Steamboat Telegraph Steel plow Mechanical Reaper Threshing Machine Brought workers, machines, & resources under one roof – transforms work. Parts are the same so assembly is faster Make travel upstream faster, easier Stronger, cuts better, faster. Cuts grain and makes harvesting faster Separates grain from stalk – harvesting is fas ter Communication is almost instant, links the nation

14. American Industrial Revolution Economic change in America (farming to manufacturing) Factory machines replaced hand tools Large scale manufacturing replaced farming as the main form of work.
