    Not spinning yarn or carding. I had to google carding as I had never heard of it!

    It is used in a process involving wool though

    A £1 coin is 3mm thick (I often use one as a depth gauge).

    The gizmo looks like something that I was going to make to try to punch the middle bit out of a £2 coin (how do they get that bit in there so tight????)

    Why try and get the middle out of a £2? Trying to make 2 £1 coins?

    The new £1 coin will also be a 2 section coins.

    Maybe that makes 2 x 50p
