Refurbish tools
We supply hundreds of different types of tools and sewing machines. They each require different refurbishing techniques. We make sure they are:
- safe to use
- fully working
- of a quality and in condition to last a long time
- clean and pleasant to use.
You don’t need to have experience. An interest in getting your hands dirty and bags of enthusiasm are all that are required. There are lots of books and manuals on tool refurbishing and we have tool refurbishing sheets and other guidance to help you.
A great way to learn is to join an existing refurbishing group or you could start your own. Either way, you’ll get lots of support to get you going.

Volunteers come in all sizes!
