For anyone that may be interested, There is a free image processor available that can take wheel drawings apart. It is from the National Institute of Health, and it is called ImageJ. It is an MRI image processor used by physicians to manipulate MRI data.
It takes about 30 min to download as a zip file, and it has about a gazillion free plugins you can add. On the dark "twin" drawing, it was able to pull the "eye" above the suspected hanging weight out of the gloom and reveal the pivot pin holding it.
If anyone would like to try it themselves, It's at www.nih.gov, download "ImageJ". That weight hanging from the rod on the left side looked real pretty outlined in pink against the black background. That's not all, but have your own fun with it. It's
a trip! FYI..........
