חמתות. נאדות של עור:
תורמלין. כיסין גדולים של עור, שהרועה מניח חפציו לתוכן:
המקבלים כשיעור. המפורש למעלה בריש פרק כרים. החמת של שבעת קבים. והתורמל של חמשת קבין. וכל שכן אם מחזיקים יותר, דאז משמשים ישיבה עם מלאכתן. אבל פחות מכאן לא:

Bartenura
לשטיח (rug) – to stretch/spread on the ground to sit upon it.
לתכריך הכלים (as a wrapper for vessels/utensils) – to wrap up the utensils,, as for example, knives and scissors and needles in order to preserve them.
ושל רצועות ושל סנדלים – leather that stands to cut from it straps and sandals, is ritually pure from everything, for it is not used for work. But straps that are already prepared, are ritually impure, as is explained in Tractate Negaim, Chapter 11.
לשטיח. לשטוח בארץ לישב עליו:
לתכריך הכלים. לכרוך בו את הכלים, כגון סכינים ומספריים ומחטים כדי לשמרן:
ושל רצועות ושל סנדלים. עור העומד לחתוך ממנו רצועות וסנדלים, טהור מכלום, דמחוסר מלאכה הוא. אבל רצועות המתוקנות כבר, טמאות, כדמוכח במסכת נגעים פרק י״א:

After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah.
