Turns up to 200 Rotten Flax automatically, but slowly, into Lint, Straw and Tow. Needs two characters to start. Can be tuned with the Mechanics skill.

Construction costs

Upgrade the base and hopper

Improves the capacity to 600 Rotten Flax.

Further upgrade the base and hopper

Improves the capacity to 1200 Rotten Flax.


Other Upgrades

Flax Gins may be tuned using the Mechanics skill to run more quickly, and/or further upgraded with a Springbox to run more quickly still. Flax Gins with Springboxes may display unusual behavior: They process flax multiple units at a time, and simply stop if there is less Rotten Flax in the hopper than their unit for that step. It is seemingly possible to have a flax gin processing a non-integer amount of flax per step behind the scenes - this causes alternating amounts processed in successive steps, e.g. a gin processing 3.x will produce 3 flax one step, then 4 flax the next.
