OK, you have proved your point; have a nice day :)
Norskpro May 13, 2013:
It is not "laying/covering with felt". It is about making felt from boiling wool and shaping objects from this boiled wool.
Rafal Piotrowski May 13, 2013:
It could be either, I did not exclude the option that you have suggested. I wrote verbatim: "laying/covering with felt", NOT only "roofing". See below, thank you.
Norskpro May 13, 2013:
...and then making objects...
Norskpro May 13, 2013:
@Rafael Piotrowski This is not about covering in felt or roofing paper, but cooking wool.
Rafal Piotrowski May 13, 2013:
Well, thank you, Norkspro, for following my advice...
Rafal Piotrowski May 13, 2013:
Maybe "roofing workshops" would do the job? We'd need a Danish native speaker here :)
Rafal Piotrowski May 13, 2013:
Would that not denote "felting"? Meaning "laying/covering with felt or tar board/roofing paper"?
