Standard and Fine Tooth made by Riley Wood and Fiber Art
Hackle: 3.5", 6", 12", or 18"
These Hackles are a very powerful tool for blending/combing fibers. With one, two, or three rows of tines, and in both a standard and a fine-tooth configuration. The tines are sharp and sturdy. With between 3” and 3.75” of exposed tine, they have a lot of room to add almost any fiber in pretty much any length desired. When used with a diz, making roving is a breeze.
Overall dimensions are between six and twenty-two inches by 1 1/4” by 1”. The tines are seated ½” deep and following the taper, which is strictly an aesthetic choice. Except on the 3.5” hackle which is more or less meant to be a comb attached to a table without the comb pad. If you plan to always comb from a fixed comb, this option is great! I love the way these turned out and nobody’s making their hackles like this. Making them more unique without losing functionality and capabilities. Each tine drops down an amount equal to the amount of taper on each side. Finished off with a beautiful 45° Chamfer on all edges. These provide a full 3.5”, 6”, 12”, or 18” of space from one end to the other. A total of between 12 and 285 tines.
To secure to a table or any other sturdy surface, there’s a ½” ear, so to speak, on each side for a clamp, (which I do not provide). The holes are .25” diameter for an L-style hook. I will carry these in the future but am currently having a hard time sourcing a vendor. I actually do have a few of these in stock, and they can be found here —>
As a tool for combing, de-vegging, straightening, aligning, and the overall general prepping of your fiber for spinning, or in preparation for carding. Creating roving is super easy with a diz (anything semi rigid with a small hole in it). Load on your mix of fibers and gently pull your roving through the hole as you glide along the width of the hackle.
