Deluxe Drum Carder - Easy Clean -

  • $ 71500


NOTE: OUR CURRENT PROCESSING TIME FOR THE CARDERS ARE 4-5 WEEKS.

We are still recovering from our woodshop fire in February, but hope to be back to faster processing times soon. Read about the fire here: https://www.bamfiberworks.com/pages/fire-update

Crafted in our woodshop in Central KY. This Drum Carder has been a project 8 years in the making. During the designing process I decided to LOAD the carder with any helpful feature I could imagine. (Including several never seen before features)

From the finished prototype I worked backwards going through my system to craft these efficiently so I could make the price VERY competitive and give you the greatest value.  I am so excited to offer this product. As always if you don't absolutely love it I do WHATEVER it takes to make it right.

Excellent Carder

My Mom has this carder and she let me use it on a recent visit. What an amazing unit! I love how well thought out it is and how easy to use. It was so much fun my 16 year old son got involved too!! Thanks so much for such a great piece of equipment.

Excellent drum carder

My wife absolutely LOVES this carder she has been using it since the day we unboxed it. The only very small issue she is having is the ability to lock the drum to initiate the drum unloading process. Other than that it is a very nice machine and we hope to get many years of use out of it.

High Quality for a Great Price

I’m enjoying the beautiful batts I’ve been making from single breeds as well as blends. The mechanisms are smooth and straightforward. This is a unique drum carder in that you have two drive belt adjustments: one for clean picked raw wool and the other for already prepped fibers. The self cleaning drum attachment is a top selling point and sealed the deal for me after seeing videos of it in action.
Unfortunately, mine arrived with a cracked wooden part on it but Baruch had a new one sent out right away. It’s super easy to replace and kind of got me to take a good look at how the carder is built and how it works. Highly recommend this drum carder and the company.

Fabulous carder

so far, I am loving this carder. I have been carding some fine Shetland fiber and the results are excellent.

This drum carder is so easy to use, smooth drawing fiber in and makes light fluffy batts.

So pleased with my purchase and customer service. Can’t recommend enough. Thanks Baruch!!
