If you want to produce a cleaner more uniform top, you will want to consider English combs. When using English combs, one comb is held stationary in a base which is clamped to your table or work space while the other is gently swung. Indigo Hound 5-pitch English combs have five rows of tines and come complete with wooden combs covers, base pad, diz, doffer and straightening tools. These combs can have a lengthy back order time-frame.
Designed after an ancient European set of comb fragments, Indigo Hound Viking combs fit the needs of today's spinners. Their long, single row teeth are suitable for most fleeces, especially those with relatively long, coarse staples like Romneys. The double row viking combs have two rows of offset tines. This arrangement of tines holds back more of the shorter fibers and loosens more chaff so that the resulting top is cleaner and more uniform. The wood is maple, the tines are stainless steel. Both come in pairs, and with an instruction booklet. Picture shows single-row version. These combs can have a lengthy back order time-frame.
