Did he or Johann die first? If the latter, I would think that it might be that Karl would want to make sure the secret did not die with him. I would think he would have stored an explanation of the secret in a safe or something, told to hand it over to his children after his passing to make sure the secret did not die with him. Or did Bessler really convince him that the secret to his wheel was securely coded into his books? So there was no need to worry about the secret being lost forever.<br />Kaspar Hauserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07062207325283738023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4862207778089432835.post-63201664399496517112018-06-09T22:17:31.841+01:002018-06-09T22:17:31.841+01:00Interesting, if the wheel is there with the metal ...Interesting, if the wheel is there with the metal weights a good metal detector of some kind may find the wheel/cavity in the wall.<br />what do you think of the timing/likelyhood, a 3 foot wheel was not found after he passed?<br />Jon Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4862207778089432835.post-91176845135213366632018-06-09T06:37:57.953+01:002018-06-09T06:37:57.953+01:00Well Jon, who knows the old windmill still stands ...Well Jon, who knows the old windmill still stands in Furstenberg .
