Picker Machine

One of the ladies of our spinners group, her daughter bought in her "Picker Machine" that I had not seen before. We had to pick out the burrs and odd grasses from just sheared fleece. Then placed it in a bin ready to be picked. When ready you swing the frame back and forth as it has metal forks underneath. It separates and fluffs up the fleece ready for spinning. Amazing !! Must keep your hands clear.
We meet each Wedneday morning in the Coffs Harbour Showgrounds Art and Crafts building. therefor we are surrounded by paintings of all levels, and mediums. It is a very friendly place to meet. Plenty of car parking spaces and plenty of coffee if we need it. What else does a girl want? Posted by Picasa

Just gotta make sure your boob doesn't get in between the swinging frame and the nails...
