\"\"Hello gang!<\/p>\n

Today I want to share with you a little story about how I now am the proud owner of two pairs of wooden practice cymbals. My brother, Joe Devine, owner of Wicked Mojo Designs on Etsy, is a precision machinist by day, and an avid woodturner by night.\u00a0 He’s made me many beautiful wooden objects like candle holders and bud vases, to really plain and functional items like wooden storage boxes.<\/p>\n

Seam Rippers<\/h2>\n

A few years ago my mum and I challenged him to make hand-turned seam rippers. We are both dressmakers and our older hands are always searching for tools that are more ergonomic and easy to hold.\u00a0 Jax the Seam Ripper<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0was born!<\/p>\n

My mum got the first one, I got the second, and we persuaded him to make more for other sewists who are interested in having a hand-crafted, ergonomic tool.\u00a0 Lately, he’s been offering a two-ended Jax with an awl option which adds another level of functionality.\u00a0 I finally got ahold of the awl attachment and I use it to guide finicky fabrics through the feed dogs.<\/p>\n
