Sam can can build and sell industrial machines, but have you ever wondered if he can make something with one?
Sam has never sewn a bag before. But being a good sport, he volunteered to sew a mini-bag charm from this collection on camera. He chose to do his charm in leather, skived it on a THOR RE-T801, and sewed it on a THOR 1541 industrial walking-foot sewing machine.
Watch this quick video and see what his colleagues at Sunny Sewing had to say about his charm.
