    I'm so glad to have found this video. I have a Strauch carder and when I take off my bat there's ALWAYS a lot of wool left on the drum. I thought it must be so I'm doing wrong. However I see how much was left behind on your carder, I feel better seeing this thank you.

    Thanks for this video! New to wool and the process. Doing some raw wool on my louet jr carder and getting a lot of bits on my licker-in and was googling why. Came across this video and it was very precise and understandable in explaining woolin vs worsted!!! Thank you thank you. Your bat looks like what i keep getting vs most of the rest of the videos i find are using their carders to blend their milled bats (which look nothing like my off the sheep raw wool!!!).

    I've been trying to get my drums perfectly aligned - i thought the teeth weren't supposed to touch but i guess not since i hear yours do touch. any tips on how to get them the perfect distance apart?

    Thank you. I had thought that drum carders were only for woolen prep. I spin and wear worsted. I have several fleeces in my craft room. Hmm. Christmas!

    Helene L To further enable you, I’ve seen videos where the fiber is dizzed off the carder to make roving.

    Does the tension band do a figure eight? Or not...I cannot see that side of the carder.
