This shingle mill belongs to Bill Orr, who restored it. The first picture shows him demonstrating it at Pioneer Peanut Day, Dothan, AL. The second picture is, I'm pretty sure, a "before restoration" picture.

This is the only De Loach shingle mill I have ever seen. Thanks to Bill for giving permission to reproduce the photo.
