Thread: Wool, wool, wool.

I bought raw lanolin grease, diluted it in white spirit then dipped my swannie, beanie and Norsewear fingerless gloves In the ‘soup’ then air dried them.

Absolutely brilliant results for outer-layer clothing. Definitely shower proof and I felt the swannie held onto less water in a downpour too - but it would still be bloody heavy. Absolutely hell to wear next to your skin lol.

I tried sourcing raw lanolin a couple of years back and really struggled to find any. It’s all exported and sold back to us as exhorbitantly-priced beauty products

I've got 50 bales in the shed you can have!!!!!

Now you made me feel Guilty
Wool should have a future use - why not use for insulation etc etc

It is in my view still (like cotton) the best natural fibre on this Planet
I even topped the Napier sale one year with my hogget clip (3.92kg per hogget) with exactly $4 per kg
Robert Muldoon had topped it up with 24% SMP but !!

@Sarvo Back in the day before witholding tax they reckon Muldoon was an expert possum trapper because every invoice receipt filled out by the fur buyer for the trapper was for Rob Muldoon.......
