A wet felt machine, how can it help me ?
Woolfelting a creative process, but hard work too!
Wool felting is an ever popular creative process, that has been around for centuries, a variety of products such as; hats, bags, cushions, blankets and tapestries, can be made. Wet felting is physically very demanding, especially so for people, to whom it is more than just a hobby. Try using a felt machine to relieve the job.
Arm- shoulder- and backaches are frequent complaints and when spared such problems, one might feel restricted by the limited number of hours to be spent felting. The JPP felting machine offers relief from the physically demanding, without hampering the creative side of the process.

- What distinguishes the JPP felting machine is the fact that it has four eccentrically revolving rolls, i.e. two top and two bottom rolls.

- Before starting the actual process set the time, speed and also the top roll pressure. Working with different settings will give you the experience to reach the desired result.
- The felting process evolves over several rounds. As the process works hardest on the outside of the roll, it is necessary every couple of minutes to stop the machine and take out the roll in order to turn the wool over, add some extra wool where necessary and straighten the piece out. This procedure to be repeated several times to achieve a well-balanced piece of work.
