I've bought myself a set of Wool Combs

Since my last post, I have purchased a set of Valkyrie Extrafine Viking Wool Combs, after studying a chart posted on a Spinning Forum which detailed the results of a "study" about which type of Valkyrie combs worked best with the fleece of certain sheep breeds.  The heads are 5 inches wide with a 4 inch working width and contains 43 closely spaced 3 3/4 inch long hardened polished steel tines.  I bought the universal mounting pad too, which can be clamped onto a table.  They are not a cheap tool, at around £150 for the combs, pad and delivery within the UK.
