Julie watch this short video here. It looks like the seeds can be removed with a block of wood and a metal bar.

I've looked for small cotton gins or hand crank gins , haven't come up with much you might want to try craigslist or something similar down there. If your not doing that much I seem to remember seeing something like two file/rasp cleaners separating cotton.

Just go buy cottonballs at the store, work from there. Watch for different size pieces of cotton. The cotton pulled off the seed will not be as strong as rest of cotton. Just so you know, its called linters, its what they make paper money out of. Hope you enjoying weather there, its 19 degrees wind blowing 37 mph and snowing here in west texas.
