So, the guy with Habasit called and came by today. Unfortunately I wasn't home when he did. He was passing through Roseburg and figured that he could get the information for the band. I was out at a fiber mill to get some of my fiber processed to yarn (which I am so excited about). Dave, my brother in law was there, so the guy was able to see the carder and figure out what I need. He said that he will get be able to come back in about a month and give me a replacement part for it, plus he said he will get an extra one also! Yay!
Until then I have figured out a kind of solution. While I was at the fiber mill the lady there said that for awhile they had to use zip ties on one of their belts and that it worked okay, so I tried that on my carder and it actually works alright. It's not great and makes me do a bit more work, but way better than the hand carding that I would need to do if I didn't have a drum carder. I am so happy about this! Hooray!
