Ashford Electric Drum Carder

Designed with the most versatile 72 point carding cloth it can handle a wide range of microns from fine combed mill tops to courser locks and texture-adding fibres making it a great all-rounder for those who like to experiment. For very fine fibres you can do a second pass through the carder for beautifully smooth results and for textured art batts you can feed larger chunks of textured fibres straight onto the large drum.
 
Of course Ashford thinks of everything and includes a packer brush, cleaning brush, doffer and clamps which means you can use it straight out of the box with no fluffing around trying to locate the extra bits and bobs you need.  

Turn fibre preparation into relaxation. It's not only fun and easy it turns fibre into the most divine sliver ready to spin, weave, felt or sell.
