DID YOU KNOW WE? Hackles We have both single and double pitch hackles. They use stainless steel pins with polished points that are blunt enough to be much safer to use and sharp enough to do the job well. When we started with combs, we used to drill the bases to mount the pins. It is easier to get started in production with, but the drills end up wandering in the wood and the pins require a slow process of bending them back into line. Now, instead of drilling the hackle base, we have developed a new technique of bonding the pins in place with a very tough resin. The pins are positioned perfectly straight and perfectly even on every hackle. These are available in either single or double row options. We include a wooden pin cover to protect you and the hackle when it is not in use. Also included are special hand-made clamps. The clamp block is drilled at an angle and has a solid rubber top to ensure that the hackle is held firmly on your table and the rubber will prevent damage to the table. The clamps allow you to secure the hackle to a sturdy surface and carry out colour blending in conjunction with a diz.
