A blast from the past to share with my friend Celia. Belfast Mini Mill in on PEI, not Nova Scotia as I stated. Here are some of the better pictures from 2012:
This is the machine or press that they use to press the felted fiber into the backing. It has kind of a waffle shaped grill, but the squares are about 2" square.
I loved the size of this winder, should have bought it in 2012, because when we went back in 2018, they weren't carrying these hand made models anymore.
