The bubble wrap actually has a huge part in wet felting and nuno felting. The bubble create friction between the fiber while you are rubbing with your hands or rolling. When you are rolling it's the pressure and the bubble on the bubble wrap that create the felt from individual fiber to one solid piece of material-felt. Instead of bubble wrap(which is the most common used you can use bamboo mat or bamboo shade, solar pool cover which is like a huge piece of bubble wrap and is way more durable. I enjoyed watching your video!...it's nice to see people interested in my number one thing I love to do. It's so freaking cool huh?!!!
Well I can definitely say, it's not the end product but the journey. And what an amazing journey. I suspect I will always look at each of these materials differently knowing what expertise goes into making them. It is wonderful to to get an insight into essentially what our ancestors did with their daily lives, even if we don't.
If you want lyme disease from some hide, botulism from canning some food and involuntary thumb amputation from a diamond saw then sure! Just kidding, get Andy and Cody from Cody'sLab and you'd survive anything.
what I want to know, is what would you use instead of the bubble wrap when you roll it around. I doubt you can just roll it without any intermediate layer, because it would probably just all stick together, right? So what? do you cover it with leaves and roll it into that?
Hello, I am planning on making my sister a total handmade/original jacket. I have ordered a pattern and need 3 yards of 45" material. My plan is to layout 63ish inches to allow for shrinkage which I will need to do in sections making the jacket inconsistent. My second thought is to buy 100% felt from amazon in 60" width, add my design and try to numo felt the material then cut out the pattern. My goodness either plan is a massive endeavor. I'm I crazy, should I give up before I start?
Wait... that's it? So just a bunch of wet hair, roll it up in something it won't stick to over and over until it joins? ... Imma do this to my cat's hair.

What would you use to felt the wool before bubble rap?
Bamboo
Jk i guess maybe paper
Your hands, maybe some big leaves for the rolling
@@Diego-ud3nb they actually do use big bamboo mats :) they work great
What other fibers can you felt? For example, could you felt deer or horse hair? (assuming you had fibers long enough)
Next episode how to make a gun from scratch.
you should make a coat out of deer hide
Did you use ancient bubble wrap?
I believe they used something a little more common back then:feet.
What is the name of that machine the lady uses to roll the wool through???
Drum carder.
Did Canyon (codys lab) stumble over this video
Maybe?
We did this in kindergarden
Mongolians use the same technique to make the felt sides of their yurts.
