A one-page dictionary entry describing machines for shearing the surface fibers of woolen cloth to an even level after teaseling. It explains the fixed rack and revolving cutting-disk type, and the more common revolving-cylinder shears with a ledger-blade, spring-bed and swing-carriage. It also mentions Lewis's English transverse cutting machine for broadcloth, and notes that carpets are sheared the same way.
