Comments from Elizabeth: Swinging wool pickers will open up wool and mohair locks quickest and best for the Hobby Fiber Artist. If you ever used a Patrick Green Triple Picker (no longer being manufactured) This Wool Picker is similar but the Brother has upgraded to Stainless Steel upper cradle arms and shaft and has more pins. (more picking power)

If you have a drum carder and want to card washed wool or mohair locks you will need to open up the locks before you can put it into the carder. You can do this by hand but will find this tedious in no time. If your wool or mohair includes small pieces of vegetation or second cuts, putting it through the picker will help remove.

Picker Details from Brother:

This is the perfect fiber-preparation tool to tease, open and blend fibers to prepare them for carding. Carding unteased fibers can damage both the fibers and the carder teeth.
Infinitely faster and more thorough than hand teasing.

Impressive density of picker teeth - over 620.
Effortless, swinging on sealed ball bearings.
Picked fibers often spinnable without carding.
Sturdy and attractive Oak frame.
Shipped fully assembled.

Size 24" long, 24" high, 12" wide, weight 28 lbs.
Table clamps for stability while using.
Full directions for use.
Security locking device, with padlock supplied.
Now with Stainless steel upper cradle arms and shaft.

Picker can be very dangerous and must be treated with respect.

Our points are ground, polished and hardened to maintain their sharpness. Do treat these points with respect, and please don't ask us to sell our picker to you unless you are a responsible individual who will ensure its safe use and locked storage.

Due to the nature of the picker, we have added a positive lock on the swinging cradle- not only to allow the machine to be carried in safety, but also to be padlocked to protect children or unauthorized people from playing with it and doing themselves an injury. It must be treated with great caution. We supply a small padlock to lock the machine when it is not in use.

It is your responsibility to NOT use the machine when children are around, and to prevent others from becoming injured. Treat it with the same respect you give a power lawnmower or a sharp knife.

We cannot accept any responsibility for any damage or injury attributed to the wool picker. For Safety, we recommend close-fitting leather leather gloves and our Picker Claw.
