| Fancy Kitty Kitten The inexpensive drum carder with expensive drum carder features |
If you are looking for a great full size Drum Carder, look no further.
You may pay more, but you won't get a better drum carder!
You have found the "Fancy Kitty Kitten drum carder". This is not just an
inexpensive carder, we challenge you to find a better carder at any price.
We at Anderson Originals are proud to offer the "Fancy Kitty" brand fiber drum
carders. We have been avid spinners, knitters, and crocheters for many years, and
all our products are hand crafted by us, in the good old USA.
Our kitten drum carders feature fully adjustable drums mounted on steel axles with
sealed steel ball bearings on both the swift and licker-in for silky smooth
lubrication free operation. They have three eights aluminum handles for flex free
turning strength. They are built using modern methods, quality parts, and hand
crafted care. The drums come preadjusted for optimum performance; however, can
be easily readjusted for your varying requirements.
It has a 4 to 1 drive ratio.
It features a polybelt drive, that does not slip, for smooth operation.
It has one half-inch long carder wire giving you the ability to produce thick bats.
It is 15 inches in length; 15 inches wide, and weighs approximately 10 pounds. They
are made from 100% North American Red Oak hardwoods. The slide out feed tray
is made from one quarter inch hardwood veneer.
They are sanded and unfinished. They may be finished simply with a tung or other
oil finish or left unfinished. We recommend some type of finish be applied if you are
located in a very dry climate to protect the wood from splitting.
It is dressed with solid brass strips and all adjustment screws are stainless steel or
zinc plated, for a long and rust free life.
Just like its' big brother "The Fancy Kitty Drum Carder", it has an 8.5 inch wide drum
that will produce bats 22 inches long.
We are currently offering it with 90 tpi cloth on the licker-in and 120 tpi cloth on the
swift, or 72 tpi cloth on the licker-in and 90 tpi cloth on the swift and 90 tpi on
licker-in and 190 tpi on the swift,
.
Rubber nonskid feet, one hold-down clamp (that is installed with a stainless steel
screw, set in a brass insert), and a bit to fit the adjustment screws are included with
the carder.
With the exception of the screw-on handle, it will arrive fully assembled and ready to
use at no extra charge.
We offer a one year warranty on cloth & belts and life time limited warranty on all
hard parts and workmanship, to the original buyer, as well as parts and repair to
anyone.
All our products come with a 100% satisfaction guarantee, you may return
any item within 14 days of receipt in the original box & packing for a full
refund less shipping. You are purchasing from someone that been working and
turning wood for 50 years, having sold pieces to Universities, galleries, museums,
and individuals in all fifty States and more than twenty five countries around the
world.

choice 54, 72, 90, 120, or 190 points per square inch, the axle, sealed

different fiber types, just purchase a secondary swift assembly with
the cloth you require. Remove the four swift adjusting screws, lift
the off the existing swift and replace it with the auxiliary swift,
replace the four swift adjusting screws. Adjust the swift to the
licker-in, and you are ready to card.

In keeping with our philosophy of low cost high end features, it has the following features:
1. It uses an expensive gear drive motor that turns slowly allowing the use of small pulleys, but has a great
amount of torque (turning power). It will maintain the speed at which you set it and not bog down. It also uses
tooth belt pulleys that feature the same no slip quality of chain drive, but with no required maintenance and
very quite operation.
2. It has fully adjustable speed control, from 0 to 60 rounds (on the swift) per minute. (Because the motor
drives the swift, it will have the same 4 to 1 ratio on the swift to licker-in. (Just like turning it by hand.)
3. It is reversible.
4. It will work with our brush attachment.
5. For our current customers, it will EASILY install on your existing Kitten carder.
6. The entire assembly which consists of a frame, two pulleys, gear head motor, motor controller with speed
control/on off switch/reverse switch, tooth belt, power supply, and power cord will be contained in an
approximately 3.5 inch tall red oak frame that will fit under the existing Kitten drum carder and match perfectly.
This gives our customers the ability to purchase a full sized, full featured, motorized drum carder for about the
same price as our competitors standard manual drum carders.
