Here are some photos of the Jesse Hill gunshop which is still operating under Hayden Hill (standing in the photos). These photos are by Matthew Brown, son of Robin Brown of A.A. Brown Gunmakers. Click on the first photo to go through the series and then at the end a short video of the overhead shaft and the belts to the various mills, drills and lathes.

Great website, Stephen. Some wonderful photography. Thanks.

BTW, that Hill gunshop is fascinating but looks like it would be a cold place to work during winter.

May God bless America and those who defend her.

That shop would give OSHA a nightmare. All those belts without guards to idiot proof them. Maryland has their own MOSA which is even worse. Sure a few other state do as well. It is a wonder we fit by without the nanny state.
