New manufacturing methods spread• Manufacturing methods/concepts used in textiles spread to other industries.
• Eli Whitney signs a government project. - Claims he can make 10,000 army muskets in 2 years.
- Fails, but does successfully demonstrate the concept of interchangeable parts.
Interchangeable parts revolutionized industry:o Made replacing parts easiero Made production fastero Reduced production costso Allowed for a less-skilled labor force
Impact: Migration of people from farms to cities. Work done in factories instead of the homes.

Impact of new inventions
• Linked regions together / National Unity
Ex. Midwestern farmers grew food to feed northeastern factory workers. Midwestern farmers bought manufactured goods from the east. As more factories were built in the north, their demand for southern cotton increased.
(Downside: Led to expansion of slavery in the South)
