A flick carder is a practical tool to open the wool locks in preparation for spinning. The base is curved and comfortable and has a less flexible cloth than the usual handcards, which helps to open those more felted ends. The cloth has a density of 72TPI.

What does "TPI" mean?TPI refers to "teeth per inch." The TPI defines the density of the teeth on the card cloth. A denser cloth will have more teeth per unit of surface area and will be more suitable for carding finer wools. A less dense cloth has fewer teeth and is better suited for thicker wools.
