Key information

Yellow tools require further training. Training will be available either in the form of a bookable tool training session, or by dropping into the space and making an arrangement with a technician.

The indus­tri­al sew­ing machine is design for heavy-duty use and can sew through thick mater­i­als such as leath­er and canvas.

You must first com­plete the domest­ic sew­ing machine tool train­ing before you can be trained on the indus­tri­al sew­ing machine.

To book your tool train­ing, please come to our work­shop and speak with a technician.

What training do I need to use this tool?

To get trained on this tool, drop into the work­shop dur­ing our open­ing hours and ask a tech­ni­cian for a tool train­ing. Please note that the avail­ab­il­ity of train­ing depends on wheth­er a suit­ably exper­i­enced tech­ni­cian is free at the time of your vis­it. We may ask you to come back at anoth­er time.
