Hackling rake

(Note: Taken from Tale 3 Wiki)

The Hacking Rake is an upgraded Flax comb used to process rotten flax into Straw, Tow and Lint. It cannot be built until you have nails, so the prerequisite to construction is Blacksmithing. It must be built inside a compound.

To Use

Process 10 rotten flax into 10 straw on the 1st step (45/60 secs END timer);

Process 10 tow on the 2nd step (45/60 secs END timer);

Process 10 lint on the 3rd step (45/60 secs END timer);

Clean the flax comb (no timer, but cannot be done while your END timer is active).

Notes

(these notes apply to the Flax Comb as well)

You can skip step 3 if you don't need lint. This lets you produce more tow before the comb wears out. (You can skip step 2 as well, but then you're effectively growing flax just to get straw, and that's silly.)

Rotten flax is taken directly from your inventory in step 1. If you have less than 10, the comb will use what you have and produce less straw/tow/lint accordingly.

Hackling rakes wear out after about 100 cycles.
