I've heard that these multi needle tools are best suited to flat appliqu&eacute;s but can this also be used for 3d felting?

Beginner here: Based on a few things that I have made, I have to agree that these multi needle tools might be best suited for flat works. But I have made a few 3D ones with this multi-needle tools and it turned out fine. But because I had to push down with a twist motion for the needles to come out, my completed projects were more compact. It was a bit harder to control and I ended up stabbing myself a few times.

i think these are fairly versatile tools. i use them for sculpting epoxy putty and they are working quite well.

I'm sure you can, but it is pretty stiff. You may want to rethink your plan. You can buy felt at the craft store a lot cheaper and easier to conform to your jewelry box.

I wouldn't. I'm an experienced quilter and work in a quilt shop. For general machine Applique I would recommend Pellon wonder under (not heavy duty), misty fuse or steam a seam. It is a little less gummy for your needle and far less expensive. I use this to transfer hand embroidery designs onto fabric with my printer or copier. Good product but not right for what you are going to do in my humble opinion. Have fun!

This saw is best for straight cuts so while it might be useful for preparing blanks for your purpose it might not be suited to even gentle curves. Keep one in your tool collection anyway. New uses will suggest themselves !

yes you certainly can, but would not recommend using on curved surfaces, its great for flat surfaces. However this is the best sander out there.

Yes, I have cut thru felted material for a project and the OLFA cutter works great!

Depends on what type of projects you are trying to accomplish. I have been a little disappointed in my kreg jig honestly. It is good for joining 1x dimensional lumber but not good in joining 1x to 2x or 2x to 2x. Id imagine if you went smaller than 1x, it would provide very little strength to joints. The master system gives you a few bells and whistles like the clamp but you're fine saving a few bucks and going with another if you wanted.

I don't think it would do well for small irregular items. Great for straight flat cuts.

There is no mention of using a double pointed needle in the instruction book of this machine. There is both a ZigZag Width control from zero to 6.5mm with zigzag and a Stitch Length control of Zero to 4mm.

I suppose you could use this for bending flat wire for jewelry but it's not really made for small intricate work. Say for example you want to make a small ring or circle; the smallest this item will do is approximately 3 inches. Also, the rollers are knurled so it will leave marks on your metal which would need sanding and polishing.

I have tried with foamy and works well, I have not tried with felt, when I do I'll let you know.

Look into the Arbortech mini turbo kit which is smaller but the plane is extended away from tool which allows deeper hollowing. It depends on what your wanting to sculpt but both would most likely work.

I have not used it to cut felt, but believe it would be lovely. Of all of the sets of Framelits I own, this one is my favorite and, most used. I have a good friend who makes beautiful cards and this is her favorite as well.

You can but it is not easy. Lots of working with the edge of the iron. Ideal for pressing sheets and linens. Large flat surfaces are the perfect niche

I use it for applique and use the same tread I do on any other project. However I buy my design's online and follow along with my computer. The machine will stop as you go so you can add the fabric and such.

The Bosch 5 in ROS20VSK sander a really excellent tool for flat-ish surfaces 5 inches across or more.... So maybe some parts of doors and flat panels. But it is a better prep sander than a finish removal tool. If you have mouldings and door panels you will want a detail sander... after a chemical strip. There area lot of eco-freindly chem strippers out there, so don't fool around with sanding old varnish off detailed parts. Look into multifunction tools at Harbor freight. harborfreight.com/catalogsearch/result?q=multifunction+tool One they offer has variable speed and comes in a kit with a triangle detail sanding head. Better than the Fein Tool which costs a ridiculous amount more. I know. I'm a pro and I use my HF tool all the time on jobs with guys who have Fein Tools...HF is a Great tool for the money. Skip the bigger sanders listed as "detail sanders". They are too large You will want to cut your own sandpaper for the detail heads from 3X sandpaper hook-n-loop disks. 3x sandpaper is excellent stuff so if you buy this Bosch RO sander get some 3X discs for it too.
