The water driven hammer mill for fulling has been in existence since the early middle ages - in most of Europe. Felted wool clothing protects against the elements well - making excellent coating and blankets. The cold mangle is for compacting the finished cloth. it is also used on linens to bring up the sheen, and in the case of damask, the pattern.
