How long is the fur? Do you want it spun as pure fur or a blend with wool? Do you know what type of yarn from it is envisaged, or is it more a case of being spun for what it is/as it comes and deciding what best to do with it after?

Hi! Thanks for asking. I have since sold the carder and upgraded to a "real" carder. I do quite a bit of pet fur spinning, and although the DIY carder worked pretty well, I need something more professional for the volume that I tackle. I would still recommend the project for folks who occasionally card fiber, but if you have any volume of carding to be done, it's best to purchase a more professional carding machine instead.
Thank you so much for posting this instructable! I nanbed the snowblower that my neighbor was discarding the other day. Purchasing a new chute for $70 was a little painful, but it's cheaper than a new snowblower.
