In 1864 the Trans Mississippi army of the Confederacy was defeated in a small town in Tennessee, effectively ending confederate operations in the west. The main battle was around a cotton gin (gin for Engine) i.e. a small factory where cotton was harvested. I modelled the cotton gin to a remaining example. I hope you like the pictures.

Old Murray Gin Tennessee served as inspiration.

Looks interesting but the pictures are very small - do you have larger ones?
