From an 80 year old woolspinner to a couple of youngsters!! You are so well matched. Both crafter's. Both interested in craft enough, to use each others achievements to please one another. I was not as lucky. Brilliant job. All you need do now is to find a short plank of wood a Bicycle wheel and you're half way to a spinning wheel.
My dear husband needs to see this video!!! I bought the plans, and the carder pieces, now I can show him how it comes together. This will be my Christmas gift from him. Thank you so much for making this video. Greetings from east coast Canada, 20 miles inland from the ocean.
I have no use for a drum carder but this was so fascinating that I watched to the end. In fact, I didn't know what drum carder was until now. beautiful build. Thank you for sharing.
Sandi Devon Like you, I had never heard of a drum carder before watching this video. Maybe that's why Kris has got 8 million views for it - 99% from people who were wondering 'What the hell is a drum carder?...:
I am a yarn spinner, knitter, weaver, and bobbin lace maker and have to say that drum carded is a thing of beauty. They are so expensive to buy, I paid close to $400 US for mine. It’s not very big either. You are absolutely talented and skilled. I stumbled on your channel a week ago and have been going back to the first video forward. I seen the carder and had to watch now! I am a textile and natural fiber addict. 😂 small suggestion, finger pick the wool apart a bit more before feeding the carder with it, and little bits at a time. It will card it a bit smoother. I usually run each batt 2-3 times before spinning. Watching from southern Oregon, USA Thank you for sharing your skills and building journey with us. I appreciate the content.
Amazing job. It brings beautiful memories of my mother carding and spinning wool back in the 40's in Greece. My father, being a jack of all trades, built all her equipment. Of course, they were as perfect as yours (tools were primitive) but between all this my mother dressed the whole family. Thanks!!!!....
3 weeks work, well done. Great editing, really builds up the curiosity and it definitely works for your audience, seeing the view figures. Great stuff.
I'm pea green with envy! My jaw literally dropped when I saw this! It's one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen! You're so thoughtful, talented, and creative! 😊😊😊😊😊
Could you lovely Dot be any more gorgeous?! You're both so perfect together! 🥰🥰🥰🥰 I thought she had a spinning wheel (I saw one last year, for dirt cheap in a second hand shop, but my husband wasn't going for it 😂) but then I was delighted to find she has a small one ❤️ I bought one, and some wool that had been carded, but not spun 😊 Does she do tutorials?
I'm quite excited to see so many people making videos of the old ways for the trades, as well as all the self taught electrical engineers posting their work. I see a nice cohesion. In our future.

Dot, as you get better you'll find your yarn gets less "slubby", eventually you get to where you're making a nice, consistently sized thread, and you'll discover that people like the slubby stuff because it "looks" handmade, and you will have to work hard to get back to being able to make it that way. ;) I haven't used a drop spindle in a long time but it's a great skill to have. Congrats on the nice drum carder.
So true. Sometimes my handspun is too perfect. Once you learn good technique, it’s so hard to allow those slubs to spin into the yarn. Imperfection actually requires a great amount of restraint!
That was AWSOME!! Beautiful work. I being a DIY'er, and really appreciated all the little touches and hard work you put into this project. Next revision, water powered?
Very nicely done. It has an old world look and will become even more so as time progresses. It was thoughtful of you to make it and I'm sure your mate is impressed and appreciative.

I love it! I loved watching how she spins the wool. It reminded me of my ancestors from Romania; my childhood was fascinating because of the archaic way of life.
Wonderful! I am a spinner, so I can appreciate all the work which goes into the tool you created. She is fortunate to be the recipiant of such a beautiful gift!Thank you!
In my 73 years, I had never even heard of a _Drum Carder._ Sadly, tomorrow I will awaken having forgotten that I watched this video and have no recollection of... _???_ ...what was I talking about?
You're gonna have to make Dot a workshop soon, if this continues... shes gonna need a place for all the awesome stuff you make her. And she will give you many good things in return.
he'll be building another for himself more like , my wife took over my workshop now ive got one area in there just for me as soon as i move her belongs out of it hahahaha
I think this is a great thing to do for your GF, I'm not that good with my hands but I had access to tools so I made a cantilever sewing box for mine a few years ago, and it got me into using tools, I've not had a chance for a couple of years but hopingly I may be able to get going again very soon.
Dear Kris Harbour. 👍👌👏 Extremely well done, Sir! Lost your channel a long time ago and I'm delighted to have it back now. I subscribed instantly again and can hardly wait to watch all the videos you made till the roundhouse was finished. Thanks a lot for making teaching recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck health and wisdom.
You sir are totally awesome. 👏 If I was her I would've been praising you to the very skies, mate. 🌈 And now you can easily make yarn from pet hair too. Good on you both for keeping homesteading skills, old ways & arts, & analog wisdom alive 💕 (Who are the ones who thumbed down on this, and why, I wonder 🤔😕)
WOW, that is truly fantastic! All during the video I had no idea what this was going to be (I'm Dutch and 'drum carder' didn't ring any bells), which made the whole process even more fascinating and mysterious. Brilliant job!
I work in a cotton yarn spinning mill. We have modern cotton cards, each one can produce as much as 300 lbs. of carded cotton in one hour. Excellent job. I imagine the guys in the card room would greatly admire your work.
As a dedicated spinner, knitter, crocheter I can definitely say that you have one very special and lucky lady. I would love, love, love to have one of these. Consider making her a spinning wheel ;-) she'll love it!
Fascinating to watch .. Your craftsmanship is amazing .. I am new to your channel and a new subscriber and I will be binge watching your videos as I know I will find anything you do and all your teachings to be amazing and spectacularly educational ..
Its basically an automatic dog-brush, for wool and other fibers, to align the fibres and also remove a little of the stuff thats still stuck in it (hay..) before spinning.
I'm confused, he's actually made a useful tool Having seen numerous YT videos, I was hoping he'd show me how to turn my drill in to a router or something, Never expected to see someone actually make something useful
Just a little detail: if you made a groove in metal band (right in the middle of it) it would help when removing the bat. Ypu should also make the tool for that, a L shaped pointed metal (not flexible) rod (like a bent scewdriver) and a perpendicular wood handle. Essential... slide in the groove and pull apart just there. YOu can also add a packing brush on top of the big roll.... What a beautiful present!!!!
I would LOVE it if I had my significant other made this for me. Drum carders are expensive, but so much a luxury when it comes to carding wool! 9carding by Gand takes so much more time and elbow grease). I would cherish it all the more if it was designed and made for me. So thoughtful of you! Excellent work!
I need to get this off my chest ... THAT IS REALLY THE MOST CRAFTSMANSHIP, DECORATIVE AND FUNCTIONAL THING I HAVE EVER SEEN. AMAZING. CONGRATULATIONS. 👍👍👍👍👍
I am so very proud to see that you all are still doing this by hand. Today machines do this in huge factories. You do beautiful work. I love seeing her spinning the wool by hand. Thank you so much for sharing your gifts with us.

Dude this was awesome! Had no idea what you were building until the end, but I love a good woodworking video - We could make you an honorary Canadian with those dinner jackets your wearing. Keep it up bud!
I'm amazed at how many people (me included) don't really have any idea how common things (shirts, nails, etc) were created 200 years ago. In the modern age we buy stuff that comes out of a box - that's the extent of our knowledge. Thanks for showing us this.
Great video. 'Wooing' in it's most pure and lovely form :-) Also it make me wonder about the future, when we might not import Chinese goods any more.. Let's make stuff :-)
Wow! This my first time watching this video! You are excellent boyfriends with a caring heart for your future wife, that is awesome! I will be looking forward to some more of your handy man wood work! That so nice! And I can see she really like it too! Awwww 🥰 that’s a gift is made from your hands and heart! ❤️ Awesome!! 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Great piece. I just have some constructive criticism about your turning. Don't let the toolrest drop below the centre line of your spindle, that is just waiting for an accident to happen (speaking from experience). Depending on the size of the material you are turning you want to keep the rest 5-10mm above the centre line. You are also using the gouges like a scraper. Your gouges should be used as cutters (well all turning tools except scrapers really). The bevel of the gouge basically needs to rub the wood. The easiest way to do this is to drop the handle below the toolrest horisontal line so the point sticks up past the wood and the shaft touching then slowly bring up the handle and lower the point until the tool starts cutting. Here is a nice article I found with a quick search that might help. Otherwise great job and keep up the good work. www.newwoodworker.com/turning/ridebvl.html
Thanks Rian. It's more than 40 years since I turned the wood for a couple of stools. I recall my woodworking teacher telling me I was scraping the wood with the gouge rather than cutting it but he never did explain the process the way you have. He was hard pressed, looking after a dozen or more needy evening college students. He did obtain some great coachwood timber for me to do the turning. This is the same timber used to produce most of the Australian made 303 rifle furniture.
Looks like a spinning wheel is next on the cards Kris... thanks as always for sharing your work with all us plebs.. it was nice to hear how many hours you have put into this, so many times i watch your videos and think god it would take me days to make/do that now i know im not that slow..lol cheers Kris
i know im asking the wrong place but does someone know a way to log back into an instagram account?? I stupidly forgot my login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me
@Harry Lorenzo i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im trying it out atm. I see it takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Where did you learn your craft? It sometimes looks like you've measured things by eye and can knock a peg into a hole but I didn't see how you figured out when it would fit
Another awesome, inspiring video Kris. Nice work on the carder. If Dot gets an old metal piping tip (like an icing piping tip) and splits the batt into strips and passes it through the tip it'll make continuous roving which is easier to load onto the drop spindle. Splitting the batt directly onto the spindle, like Dot was doing, requires an incredible amount of co-ordination (and a heck of a lot more thumbs and fingers) more than I can manage!
I was looking for s comment like this. Exactly my man. Not that I'm doing the same thing mind you, but I recognize good game when I see it. What girl (real girls, not Ho's) wouldn't appreciate that gift? Boyfriend points x 1,000,000!!!
What ever you do, don't start buying her books. Maybe think about going into town and getting her something with the help of one of her friends (nothing made of metal) or that needs oiling. I know what I am talking about, the ones worth keeping, never complain, that's why you should go the extra yard. Don't worry, thinking feminine won't send you Trans. A nice Jumper or some of those lovey soft long sleeve Tee shirts that Uniqlo do. Remember if you can make it (unless you knitted it) it aint no good.
I was transfixed with the first part of the video. No music or voice over was so different and I was just so focused on watching it all come together. I am very impressed.
there's your next project Kris make Dot a spinning wheel... nice job of that and Dot...very cool are you going to use it for knitting? can i order a big pair of chunky wool slippers please LOL

Что это за изделие и для чего но мастер выше похвал!

Could you tell me where you found the metal bristle to use on the drums, please?
From the moment you reached for the hand plane, I knew it would be a labor of 💘. Well done sir !!!
Don't hold on to the fiber while you are turning the drum. It's too harsh on your wools. You carder is so beautiful 💕. Happy spinning
Hello Gigi
would love to see more of Dot's process for the wool!

Do we all watch the same TH-cam channels?
@@AndyFletcherX31 i think a lot of us do :)
@@jamesthepuerilis Yup
I was thinking Gimli's pubes, but same difference.
I was wondering why his wife would need a beard maker!
Чесалка для шерсти - класс. А вот веретено - каменный век. В России в домашнем хозяйстве используют куда более производительные прялки.
А может так и задумано. Типа этнографический музей, как делали шерстяные нитки в каменном веке. Не?😊
Beautiful piece you made there Kris. Extremely nice gift for a spinner to have - what a nice boyfriend you are! Enjoy Dot! :-)
Bloody hell, why not buy her a new hoover or an iron.. 😮. Dont know how you got away with that one.. 😂
Great video. 'Wooing' in it's most pure and lovely form :-) Also it make me wonder about the future, when we might not import Chinese goods any more.. Let's make stuff :-)
Yes, back to good old days but no Chinese import... let's make stuff.
Yeah now you need a spinning wheel, and a weaving harp, and some lamb
Wow! This my first time watching this video! You are excellent boyfriends with a caring heart for your future wife, that is awesome! I will be looking forward to some more of your handy man wood work! That so nice! And I can see she really like it too! Awwww 🥰 that’s a gift is made from your hands and heart! ❤️ Awesome!! 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Para que serve a produção desta máquina?
Very cool ! And a great gift that should last a lifetime. Well done and thank you for sharing.
Peace people
Great piece. I just have some constructive criticism about your turning. Don't let the toolrest drop below the centre line of your spindle, that is just waiting for an accident to happen (speaking from experience). Depending on the size of the material you are turning you want to keep the rest 5-10mm above the centre line. You are also using the gouges like a scraper. Your gouges should be used as cutters (well all turning tools except scrapers really). The bevel of the gouge basically needs to rub the wood. The easiest way to do this is to drop the handle below the toolrest horisontal line so the point sticks up past the wood and the shaft touching then slowly bring up the handle and lower the point until the tool starts cutting. Here is a nice article I found with a quick search that might help. Otherwise great job and keep up the good work. www.newwoodworker.com/turning/ridebvl.html
Thanks Rian.
It's more than 40 years since I turned the wood for a couple of stools. I recall my woodworking teacher telling me I was scraping the wood with the gouge rather than cutting it but he never did explain the process the way you have. He was hard pressed, looking after a dozen or more needy evening college students. He did obtain some great coachwood timber for me to do the turning. This is the same timber used to produce most of the Australian made 303 rifle furniture.
@@roberthayward9299 it's my pleasure.
Looks like a spinning wheel is next on the cards Kris... thanks as always for sharing your work with all us plebs.. it was nice to hear how many hours you have put into this, so many times i watch your videos and think god it would take me days to make/do that now i know im not that slow..lol cheers Kris
i know im asking the wrong place but does someone know a way to log back into an instagram account??
I stupidly forgot my login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me
@Harry Lorenzo i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im trying it out atm.
I see it takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Harry Lorenzo It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thanks so much you really help me out !
@Ernest Nikolai No problem :)
Incrível muito bem feito seu projeto parabéns gostei muito 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏🙏🙏
Крис-а ведь вашей девушке сейчас тоже нужна мастерская!! Какой вы молодец! И еще нужна коза -она будет давать шерсть и молоко!!

I thought it was a Cotton Candy machine at first !
Real women don't need princes. We need carpenters!
But prince can get 100 Carpenters to work
Looks like my vacuum cleaner wheel, with all the long hair around here! It is sooo cool! Thanks
Hello Maryann
Dot is going to have to make a video on her making something with the wool..
My
Be there Bilfor you have any 💡 how
Dot and Kris what an amazing match. Many blessings.
This is beautiful
Where did you learn your craft?
It sometimes looks like you've measured things by eye and can knock a peg into a hole but I didn't see how you figured out when it would fit
Another awesome, inspiring video Kris. Nice work on the carder. If Dot gets an old metal piping tip (like an icing piping tip) and splits the batt into strips and passes it through the tip it'll make continuous roving which is easier to load onto the drop spindle. Splitting the batt directly onto the spindle, like Dot was doing, requires an incredible amount of co-ordination (and a heck of a lot more thumbs and fingers) more than I can manage!
Eu aqui achando que era uma moenda kkk mais valeu a pena ver o vídeo meus parabéns pelo Belo trabalho 🇧🇷🇧🇷
E, É pra que mesmo essa máquina?? Confesso que não entendi, senão for pra misturar cabelos, pra fazer alguma coisa?? Rastafári ou algo do tipo
What a sweet guy. Who's lucky? He deserves a workshop upgrade with lots of storage things on the wall as a gift.
Кто-нибудь когда-то встречал на столбах объявления: "куплю волосы. Дорого." ? Вот куда они идут.
Это не волосы а шерсть, приспособление очень помогает теребить овечью шерсть и козий пух. Если вручную то это адский труд!
This is how real men give gifts to their woman.
I was looking for s comment like this. Exactly my man. Not that I'm doing the same thing mind you, but I recognize good game when I see it. What girl (real girls, not Ho's) wouldn't appreciate that gift?

So calm and relaxed, nearly therapeutic. Your skill amazes me. Keep at it.
What ever you do, don't start buying her books. Maybe think about going into town and getting her something with the help of one of her friends (nothing made of metal) or that needs oiling. I know what I am talking about, the ones worth keeping, never complain, that's why you should go the extra yard. Don't worry, thinking feminine won't send you Trans. A nice Jumper or some of those lovey soft long sleeve Tee shirts that Uniqlo do. Remember if you can make it (unless you knitted it) it aint no good.
I was transfixed with the first part of the video. No music or voice over was so different and I was just so focused on watching it all come together. I am very impressed.
if you enjoyed this i would recommend JohnnyQ90 to you he makes a lot of cool stuff
there's your next project Kris make Dot a spinning wheel... nice job of that and Dot...very cool are you going to use it for knitting? can i order a big pair of chunky wool slippers please LOL
