Majacraft Hand Carders
Majacraft hand carders are renowned for their exceptional design and distinctive features that make them stand out in the market. With a strong emphasis on lightness, comfort, and aesthetic elegance, these hand carders provide a superior carding experience. Introducing the Majacraft Hand Carders – Extra fine 140TPI, these carders offer unparalleled precision and quality, making them an ideal choice for fiber enthusiasts and professionals alike.
We use bamboo plywood that is both very light and very strong. Several layers are laminated together to form the curved mounting board. We also have a wide and comfortable bamboo handle that makes it easy to support each card while you are using them. Rather than use staples to secure the edges of the cloth, we have used double sided tape and special plastic edging that creates clean and tidy lines. The standard cloth we use is the great general purpose 96TPI. For finer fibres we offer an extra fine 140TPI cloth.
Hand carders are an affordable and accessible way to start fibre preparation. They are used as a pair to either prepare the fibre or to blend fibres or colours. They can also give very fine control over the way the fibre is prepared or blended.
