A ridged board or surface used in the fulling process to lay cloth on while it is being cleaned and thickened.
From 'fuller' (a cloth worker) plus 'board' (a flat wooden surface), describing the equipment used in Medieval textile processing.
Archaeological finds of fullerboards show how consistent the fulling process was across Europe—even boards from different centuries have nearly identical ridge patterns designed to maximize cloth movement.
