The reel (19) is rotatably supported by way of an axle (not depicted) which extends through the opening (24). The reel (19) further comprises a flexible elongate bristle attachment member (25) which includes a bottom wall (26) and a pair of opposing side walls (27) which define a channel (28). The attachment member 10 (25) is wound around the cylinder (23) and is secured to the cylinder to spiral about an axis of rotation of the cylinder (23). A plurality of bristles (29) are secured relative to the attachment member (25) such that the bristles (29) project outwardly from the cylinder (23). The bristles (29) are secured or retained relative to the attachmentmember (25) by inserting the bristles (29) and a flexible 15 wire (30) in to the channel (28) so that the bristles (29) are folded or bent around the wire (30), and so that the ends of the bristles (29) protrude from the channel 2(8.) The side walls (27) of the channel member (25) are folded or bent towards each other so that the wire (30) is captured within the channel (28) and so that the bristles (29) are pinched or clamped between the side walls (27). 20N I v u I 1 14 15 *J.*. . .. ....... 11.4. wn .Ir .............I oa IQ A !t2 A NO V O"S j! 4 d
