Making thread for rope?

Looks like he is using the fibers for rope or something

He’s doing a process called decortication and I learned some wild things about it‼️ What is Decortication? Decortication is the process of removing outer bark or skin from plant stems to access the fibers within. It resembles peeling an orange, applied to plants like hemp and flax. Manual Decortication‼️ A stem is passed through a barb-toothed piece of wood to scrape off the outer layers, revealing the fibers. This method involves physical labor and traditional techniques. There’s also Mechanical Decortication Larger operations use machines known as decorticators. These machines crush, scrape, and separate the fibers from the plant material, automating the process. Types of Decorticators‼️ - Simple Manual Tools Basic scraping tools for small-scale decortication. - Semi-Automatic Partly manual, partly mechanical, providing an intermediary solution. - Fully Automatic High-tech decorticators that operate without human intervention. Historical Information‼️ Decortication has historical significance, with innovations like the scavezzatrice for hemp in 1933 in Bologna and patents by George Schlichten in 1919. This reflects a transition from ancient to modern methods. Advantages and Disadvantages⚠️ - Advantages Produces cleaner, more uniform fibers at a faster rate when using machinery. - Disadvantages Manual decortication requires significant effort, while mechanical decorticators are expensive, potentially unsuitable for small-scale use. Environmental Impact⚠️ Decortication is less environmentally damaging than chemical methods, but requires careful management of waste and energy. Applications The Fibers obtained through decortication are used in textiles, paper production, rope making, and as reinforcement in composites. The quality of the fiber determines its application. This process connects traditional practices with modern technology, which facilitates the use of natural fibers in various industries‼️
