6.Machine oil

Machine oil helps to reduce friction in machines and helps the parts of the machine work smoothly and perfectly. It also reduces hardness. Anytime sewing machine is not working properly the first thing the boss asks of is if there is oil inside.

Am just starting, these are the requirements for learning, the boss will collect some and give me the rest like scissors and thread so I can be using it to practice at home. I will still need to get my own sewing machine. With time I will be able to sew on my own. I signed one year.

Thanks for stopping by
