Sometimes the Screw is immovable, and the concave Cy-linder is only moved, and commonly a ſimple Cylinder is addedto the Screw , into which a handle is grafted or fixt, as in ABthe handle B C is adjoyn d, that it md be moved round moreealily; hitherto Authors have recalled the Screw to theWedge, and the Wedge to the Leaver, or to the motion ofà weight on an inclined plane, as if you underſtand D E to
