There are presently two opinionsthat attempt to answer this question; one, my
homemade device is a winch, or two, it is a surveyinginstrument. This interpreter believes otherwise. According
to him, I allegedly used the device to cut, carve, weld,electroplate, and reduce the effects of
gravity on limestone rock.
Greetings, my name isEdward Leedskalnin. I built Coral
Castle in Homestead Florida. You may bewondering what this device is
standing next to me?

The interpreter willshow many interesting facts about
my device. At first, these facts may seemdisconnected to the reader. As the interpretation
progresses from topic to topic, the reader will see aclear picture emerge. He is confident the reader will
synthesize the following material, and seethe underlying intent of why and
what I did at Coral Castle.

The interpreter believes the followinginformation will reveal the hidden secrets to my
Quarry device. If you look closely at the highlighted regions of the Quarry device, you will see
three distinctive electromagnetic coils.
Coil number one is the largest of all three coils. Itis wound around a long iron shaft. The coil and itsshaft are located at the top of the Y shaped tree
branch you see in this picture.
I carved the left branch about mid way down intothe shape of an extended ellipse. Upon this
ellipse, I wound coil number two. It has no ironcore. It is unusual because a majority ofelectromagnetic coils have iron cores.
Based on transformer theory, coupling two coilswithout iron is not optional. Henceforth, the
interpreter believes my device is not atransformer. Instead it is used to collect,
concentrate, and focus the magnetic force to a
given location.
Coil number three is wound around the lowestpart of the tree branch. If you look below thelarge hole I drilled into the branch, you will seethe third coil. This coil is also without an iron
core. Its shape appears more rectangular than theother two coils.

Mother Coil
Ed Coil
My Sweet Sixteen Coil
Coil names you will need to knowthem. The interpreter is convinced I
personified them in the book Iwrote titled, A Book in Every Home.
The Mother and Sweet Sixteennames are used extensively in thisbook. I also mention myself when I
describe the affectionaterelationship I have for my SweetSixteen. The interpreter insists
these names are my way ofpersonifying the Quarry device coils.
To him these names are not namesof persons, but names ofelectromagnetic coils.
Coil number one, at the top, iscalled the Mother coil . The secondcoil on the left of the Quarry deviceis my Sweet Sixteen coil . The lowest
of the three coils is the Ed coil .
Note: Form this point forward, thereader must assume the interpreterwill present his interpretation as if
he was speaking through Ed. In latersections, quotes will be used when
the material is not a personalinterpretation of the interpreter.

In spite of conflicting researchdata regarding my height, we
are going to use my citizenshiprecord for the following.
In my citizenship record, I amfive feet seven inches tall. Thisdocumented height can be
used as a means for creating ascale for approximate
measurements.
The scale, in turn, can be usedfor determining component
dimensions of my Quarrydevice.

Here are the approximatehorizontal dimensions of each coil.The Mother coil is 16.59 inches. The
Sweet Sixteen coil is 3.96 inches.The Ed coil is 7.66 inches.

The coil angles are important. There is asimple reason for their respective angularplacements. These angles are an aspect ofinteracting magnetic forces. The collectivemagnetic field, produced by the Quarrydevice coils, is the determining factor for
their relative angular positions.
One of these angular positions of alignmentis the projection of the center of Sweet
Sixteens magnetic field. This fieldprojection intersects the end of the
mamma coils winding. This projection isportrayed in the picture as a red arrow. The
arrow is drawn through the axis of themagnetic center of the Sweet Sixteen coil.

Make a perpendicular line onthe opposite end of the Mother coil where
Sweet Sixteens field projection intersects. Please notethe center of the Ed coil projection is about 8
degrees from that perpendicular.
Note: In another section of thisinterpretation , the tilt of the Ed coil with
respect to the Mother coil (described above)will be used to help identify the Ed coil
sculpture at Coral Castle.

The center of Sweet Sixteen has adistance of approximately 1/16 of a
sector of the sixteen sectors in a
sixteen pointed star (22.5 degrees persector). It appears to be slightly more
than 22.5 degrees.
This can be seen if you draw aperpendicular line from the left center
end of the Mother coil, and drawanother line from the same origin tothe center of the Sweet Sixteen coil.

Draw a perpendicular line,beginning at the end of the Mother coil, and
project this line to the center of the Ed coil. You willsee the distance from the center of the Ed coil to
the center of the Mother coil is 5.5 in. x
12.76 in. or 70.18 inches.
