Drum CarderUpdated 5 months ago

A drum carder is a larger, mechanical carding tool that helps prepare fiber into batts. It consists of two cylinders covered in small teeth that align and blend fibers as you crank them through. Drum carders are invaluable for spinners who prepare large amounts of fiber, as they save a lot of time compared to hand carders.

Pro Tip: A drum carder is an investment but worth it if you love blending fibers or preparing fleece straight from the farm.
