Where is this gin located? Was this a special event or does it run every year? I'd like to see it. I have photos of my late grandfather's gin from this era, complete w/horse-drawn wagons lined up & waiting to unload.
yeah got an old steam engine in the yard and i build reids for a livin and put a bessemert on my motorcycle and a couple reids and a buzzcoil. by gobert mcreid.

NICE! Those open flames would be JUST RIGHT to have in an
environment where COTTON FIBERS are flying around.

@rusnanerces It is a diesel. The flame you see is to heat the 'hot bonnet' heads to make starting possible. (Like glow plugs.)
