[Harland and Wolff]

"We built a little screw-steamer, the Camel, of extra strength, with very big hatchways, to receive these large masses of iron; and this, in course of time, was found to work with great advantage; until eventually we constructed our own machinery."
[Men of Invention and Industry by Samuel Smiles ]
