Nice photography for this video. Thanks

[@lorainew4281]

Very interesting! I always wondered what the picker did!

[@cammienussbaum3158]

I have just found your videos, very inspiring! I raise Suri alpaca and recently made a large purchase of a Drum Carding machine to process our own fiber for hand spinners, I'm curious on the products you use for the spinning conditioners and the cohesive agents, and do you also sell those.?

[@maryannarmbrust8166]

Interesting....Thanks!

Where can you purchase this Tex Tek picker? I can't find their website.

Interesting machine !! How much rotations per second ? Wat brand does build those machines ? Thx

[@EweTube]

Its a tek tex picker. The speed is completely controlled. From very slow to very fast.

Do you process wool as a business in your mill for the public? I’m trying to figure out a way to use my will resourcefully

[@EweTube]

We do but currently not taking on customer wool right now. Check back in the spring! Blessings to you!!

Can the picker be used to clean vegetable debris from raw fiber (ex. mohair, llama, alpaca)?

[@EweTube]

Yes, absolutely it does throw out a great deal of chaff and debris, shortcuts, etc.

[@annmarymercier2211]

Thank you @@EweTube

[@annmarymercier2211]

What make and model of picker are you using?

[@EweTube]

Its a Tex Tek picker. No longer made.

[@annmarymercier2211]

@@EweTube I was hoping they would still be available. Having a hard time finding a decent commercial picker that doesn't come from China.
