Anything But BattsNSTRUCTOR: Henry & Roy Clemes
SKILL LEVEL: Intermediate (Some drum carding experience is preferred) MATERIALS: $20 (collected by instructor at class) STUDENTS TO BRING: An attitude for learning DESCRIPTION: We all like big batts, but is that really all a drum carder is good for? Of course not! In this class, we will roll rolags and remove carded sliver (roving) from a drum carder. Students will discover which tools to use – and more importantly the techniques behind – using a drum carder for preparing fiber in a manner other than a batt. All materials, carders, and tools will be provided by the instructors. INSTRUCTOR BIO: This class will be taught by the tag team of Henry and Roy Clemes. A lifelong woodworker and small business owner, Henry has been building fiber art equipment for almost 50 years and drum carders for over 40 years. Roy grew up in his family’s woodshop and is one of a few 30-somethings with 25 years of experience in his field. Together they have introduced many innovations to the fiber arts community and their equipment is known for being not only thoughtfully engineered but visually pleasing and durable as well. They regularly consult and instruct spinners, felters, fiber growers, and professional fiber artists in the use of drum carders for fiber prep. Contact Instructor |
