Last weekend, I visited friends in Mechanic Falls and explored the old mill museum.

Children lined up to ride the mechanical horses at the old fairground every summer.

The restored mechanical horse, a three-wheeled tractor unit that used to tow short semitrailers, was the museum's star exhibit.

He slipped the cards into a mechanic's grip and casually dealt the game-winning hand while no one watched.

The athlete developed acne mechanica under his helmet after weeks of intense training.

The engineer inspected the electro-mechanical brake system to identify the source of the intermittent fault.

The electro-mechanical computer era witnessed rapid innovation in calculating machines.

The lab still housed several electro-mechanical computers, relics of an era when vacuum tubes and gears coexisted.

The field technician repaired the damaged cable by installing a mechanical splice in the junction box to restore the optical signal.

The inspector approved the mechanical splices after verifying the torque on each connector.
