Flax Comb

A Flax Comb is used to process Rotten Flax into Tow and Lint, with a byproduct of Straw. It is a less durable version of the Hackling Rake, Improved Hackling Rake and Flax Gin.

Cost

To build a Flax Comb, you need:

• 18 Boards
• 36 Bricks
• 60 Thorns

Built Outside (Self > Projects > Flax Processing...) or in a Compound. Uses 5x6 cells.

Use

Stat Timer: Endurance

• Process 1 Rotten Flax into 1 Straw, 1 Tow and 1 Lint in three steps.
• Can process up to 10 Rotten Flax at a time.
• Will wear out with use and eventually vanish (this will happen during the cleaning step). Any stored processed materials will be left behind on the ground.
• Since the comb wears out based on the number of cleanings, not the amount of flax processed, make sure that you process a full load of 10 Rotten Flax every time.
