- Joni hosts felt artist Jillian Somerville Finch, as she uses The Gentle Roller to roll her most difficult type of Nuno piece to roll. Comparing hand rolling to The Gentle Roller's rolling.
Being a beginning felter, after having made a few rugs 1.4 m wide and 1.8 m. long....( exhausting hrs long hand rolling process indead ...Im Thrilled to order your machine. Thanks to the creator. Be on the lookout for my order. I can't wait to start a whole new dimension of felting.
Thanks Marion. I trust you'll get loads of enjoyment from your investment in a GR
Gorgeous scarf!
Hi ! I just love your works of ART !!!! Thank you 😊 for sharing !!!
I just seen a lady use a cordless sander i have 1 and ordering a kit also !!! Please don’t take this as RUDE , not trying to tell you how or what to do . Just been watching a lot of felt videos !!!
None compare to how much you teach and show !!! So thank you again
Thanks Tish. There are lots of ways to make felt and makers adapt all sorts of tools because there are few tools made specifically for felt making. The Gentle Roller was invented for me when I was unable to rub and roll because of a back injury. I loved it so much that I wanted to share it with other felt makers. Felt making is such a labour intensive activity that most of us end up with injuries of some sort. Or we get old and just give up making felt.
I would caution you to be careful with the sander, as it can cause wrist injuries. We have one owner - user of a Gentle Roller, who put together a video describing what happened to her after extensive use of a sander. You can view it on our Facebook Gentle Roller page. Cheers
Just wow! Do you have an idea on how much you can sell that beautifull peace of art for?
Several hundreds of dollars I imagine 😀
Hi Joni, after laying out and wetting the wool did she hand rub at all or put it straight on the gentle roller?
It's wet down with a ball brauser then plastic laid over the top and air bubbles pushed out. This can be made easier by wetting the surface of the plastic with felting solution and with your hands in a plastic bag. Flipped over, and plastic over the other side. It's not rubbed at all before placing on the roller.
More videos of working with the Gentle Roller can be found on our website gentleroller.com.au

@@GrantsPassCSL it's there to do the work for you.
There may be the odd times where you do need to work a specific stubborn spot by hand in with a hand tool but they ought to be few and far apart.
You didn’t show the machines in action. I have no idea what they are!
There are lots of videos showing the Gentle Roller in action if you visit the Gentle Roller website. For our users we have an exclusive page there to offer more technical advice. There is also a Facebook user group where we all post our experiences, tips and photos of what we make.

hola Joan, que genero uso en este chal, gracias
Hi, this amazing
I love to learn Nuno felting, I don't know where the teach it where I live in Southern California, nor the yarn you use for felting, if u have any idea pleas help me.
Iman Elhindi there are lots of felt makers in the US. Try the Facebook page of New England Felting Supplies to see if there is someone teaching near you. The fibers used in this video are super fine merino wool, felted on tissue silk or also referred to as silk Georgette. Best of luck. Cheers Joni
“Tumbler for felting “is that what you say to get information from Google ?
Roller for felting is that correct to find out information on Internet ???
Thank you 😊
It's a wet felt rolling machine called the Gentle Roller. Ours is different from others in that it also comes with a fulling drum for shrinking the pre-felt. We nicknamed the drum 'rumbler'.
Joan Cornell it so satisfying to watch you and your friends create
Hi, I would like to know how much money have you spent to make this scarf ? and how does it cost if you were to sell it ?
Hi Sandrine, there's the cost of the tissue silk, which is around $7-$8 a metre (it's a large piece, probably 2.4 metres long) and then the superfine merino, which is around $12.50 for 50 grams - probably around 120- 150 grams used. I could get in touch with Jillian if you're interested in commissioning a piece to enquiry about the cost, including the making. Let me know. Cheers
@@jonicornell-mersilk No thanks. It's just for curiosity to know the value of a nuno works. I know it's expensive. All the best, have a nice day
Hermoso😘
What fabric did you use ?
Silk Georgette sometimes referred to as silk gauze
Is this the 1100 mm or the 1400mm being used in this video? Thank you so much
Hi Becky, with Jillian's wrap we used the 1100 mm. Hope this helps you decide which one would suit you best.
Where can I find this The Gentle Roller's rolling.? Thanks!
