So I got to tour Norton Gin last week.
It’s a small old cotton gin that has been closed down for a year or so now (located in Norton, TX – between Ballinger, Bronte, and Winters).
The gin’s claim to fame is that they were one of the last “belt-run” cotton gins in the nation.
A large shaft runs along the length of the ceiling with different size belts coming off it that run different machines.
So cool!
