Herdwick sheep are virtually wild. They roam the fells (Cumbrian for “mountain”) all year round, popping down to get shorn once a year. This is an opportunity for the farmer to check the sheep’s health as they can look chubby and well with all the wool on but once “clipped” the shepherd can see properly whether they’re in peak condition or not.

The wool is stuffed into bags that we provide. We buy direct from the farmers so we can guarantee a fair rate for the wool. We take all types of wool so long as it is Herdwick – if it goes to the auction every fleece is graded which adds to the cost which takes away from the farmer’s profit. Once we’ve collected it all up, it goes to Yorkshire to get washed and baled, then shipped to Austria where it is made into wool felt according to our specification. It is moth-proofed during this process. This is a chemical-free moth proofing treatment that is patent protected and only available in the one place. They invented it and they deserve the credit for it. We’re often asked if we can figure out how it’s done and do it here. No! It’s not as simple as it looks, it takes skill and know-how and I wouldn’t want anyone to steal my ideas so why should we steal theirs? No! So that’s why it has to go to Austria.

Then it comes back as lovely felt. One type we use for our Chimney Sheep®, and this type we have made specially as a moth proof pure wool underlay. It will last for decades. It will help to draught-proof your floorboards and will give a lovely bounce with every step.

 

What is so special about pure wool underlay?

Wool is very durable, and is selected for pubs, hotels, cruise ships and the like because it can cope with more heavy traffic than synthetic carpets and underlay.

Wool is sustainable – it is grown naturally by sheep which have to be shorn for welfare reasons. Sadly, wool is virtually a waste product these days. It’s the processing that makes it so expensive.

Wool also has other remarkable properties. It’s hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb a lot of moisture without feeling damp. When the air is dry, it will wick the moisture away. This way it helps to regulate the moisture in your home, helping to regulate the atmosphere. Even more remarkable, I think, is wool’s ability to absorb high volatile compounds (VOCs). These are in everyday household items like varnish on your furniture, paint, nail varnish and nail varnish remover, some cleaning products…. all of these enter the home environment and can cause health problems. The VOCs bind with the wool fibres and are locked in permanently.

Did its job
Got me back onto the water. The mounting holes distances from center to center are less than original equipment. But in a pinch they will do the job.

Heavy-Duty 4 AWG Cable With Flexible Insulation
Size: 10ft, Color: 4awg
I am satisfied with this 4 AWG cable. The insulation coating is soft, and the cable itself is very pliable, making it easy to bend and route into the configuration needed for installation. Despite the flexibility, it still feels like a heavy-duty cable designed to handle demanding applications. I am using this cable to provide the necessary amperage to start the generator on my trailer, and it performs as expected. I also like that the wire gauge and cable properties are clearly printed along the side of the insulation, making identification easy during installation or future maintenance. The cable arrived in good condition with no obvious odor from the insulation or packaging. Overall, this appears to be a quality heavy-duty cable that is flexible, easy to work with, and suitable for high-current applications.

True copper battery cables that are high quality
Size: 10ft, Color: 4awg
I love having heavy duty cable on hand for my cars. It's so nice to be able to make your own starter and alternator cables when restoring cars. These cables are 100% copper, not CCA (copper clad aluminum) like many others are. Copper is far superior for conductivity and handling higher loads. The rubber on the cable is thick and yet very flexible..it's clearly marked and seems very durable. I like to use a hydraulic crimping tool and then add marine grade heat shrink tubing with the adhesive inside of it to keep it as weatherproof as possible.

Easy to use
Style: 6-Speaker
This was a lifesaver. After buying a house, I discovered a huge mess of audio cables wired throughout the place, and this plate made it possible to finally get everything organized. Quality is decent, not the best, but good for the value. Super easy to use and connect even old wires to it from the back.
