2. For all serious Papermaking, Paper Casting, Fiber Art Paper, and a hundred other paper related arts and crafts, one tiny fiber, hardly longer than the commas in this sentence is considered by many to be the best fibers to use. The fiber is known as Linter, Linters, Half Stuff and Rag and many other names. So what it is? It is Cotton! But not just cotton. But a tiny fiber that is left behind on the cotton seed after ginning removes the longer cotton fibers from the seed. The seed are then spit out in to huge mountainous piles many stories high,  where they are later scooped up and shaved. The shavings are called linter and it is just the finest, silky fiber of less than a small fraction of an inch. But in the production of paper, it is without equal.
