I'm carding 0.4 oz of Shetland roving, 0.4 oz of alpaca roving and 0.2 oz of tussah silk roving. What's not shown in this video is that the batt took me a total of 4 passes and I added the angelina/glitz on the 3rd pass directly to the drum.
Please excuse my sneezing during this video
great video, exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for taking the time to share this!

That was pretty informative. I have a new Strauch doublewide (motorized). I see now, I can get alot more fiber onto the big drum! It's all about feeding!

I also had the "splotchy problem" with my Doublewide Finest Strauch carder. I have switched over to Louets...and NEVER had a problem since!

With silk, try toploading. It works wonders!
