Ashford Packer Brush for standard drum carders: PRE-ORDER ONLY, please read description!
Canadian orders only. We do not usually have this in stock at our store. Please allow 7 to 10 days for shipping.
NOTE: this is the PACKER BRUSH ONLY, not an actual drum carder! PLUS it is ALREADY INCLUDED with new carders.
Designed specifically to fit the fine or superfine-cloth Ashford 20cm (8-inch) Drum Carder. This kit is simple to install and doesn't require any special tools nor holes to be drilled. It has two metal holders that fit over the small drum, with a nylon-bristled brush that fits in notches and can be swung down to brush the large drum or moved up and out-of-the-way when taking off batts.
We use a fine-cloth Ashford Drum Carder here in our shop, and we love this brush! It helps you to pack more fibre onto the drum by smoothing it as you go. Ashford suggests it also reduces fly-away of finer or no-crimp fibres such as bamboo. Neither of us has any notable handyman skills but it was really quite simple to install.
NOTE: As of summer 2013 Ashford now includes this packer brush on all of their various sizes of drum carders.
