Shout Out to my Dad

My newest business expense is a Strauch finest double-wide drum carder. Not only do I need wool for my Woolpets kits, I also want to start offering dyed and natural Romney wool for needle felting. So I asked my Dad, who is engineer extraordinaire to help me figure out how to motorize the thing. It is super easy to hand crank, but I am anticipating a large volume of orders for wool and I need to save my arm strength for needle felting. Strauch doesn't have a motorizing kit that you can purchase, but there are very detailed instructions on the website if you want to attempt it yourself. And when we called to ask Mr. Strauch a question, he was very helpful and kind. As soon as Mr. Woolpets designs some labels, there will be wool for sale. Not just any wool, special Romney needle felting wool!
