Overview-

It is constructed with 3/4" solid American red oak & has a gorgeous Tung Oil finish. It is 22.5" long, 19" wide, and 15" tall, weighing 50 pounds.

Big Tom Wide features a 17" wide, 12" tall swift available in various tpi carding cloth and creates a batt 36" long. The Licker-in is also available in various tpi carding cloth. These are selected in the drop down menu when you place your order. Allowing you to select the carding cloth that best meets your personal fiber carding needs.  It features not one, but two gear head motors that can be individually adjusted for speed, and they are both reversible. One motor runs the licker-in, the second motor runs the swift. This means you don't just have one or two carding ratios, you have infinite control of the feed to card ratio, from extremely slow to fast on either the licker-in or swift.

The power is transferred to both drums via a tooth belt pully and belt system that is as strong as the chain drive, but quiet and requires no maintenance.

Both axles run in sealed ball bearings for super smooth & maintenance free operation.

It comes with a brush attachment as standard equipment.

We offer an auxiliary drum assembly that can be changed by removing and re-installing the four swift adjusting screws. It is an option available in the following available cloth densities, 54, 72, 90, 120 tpi. This means you can card any type of fiber with ONE drum carder.
