The Techsew 202 is a specialized fur sewing machine designed for sewing a wide range of furs and sheepskin. It uses a disc-feed system and an overseam stitch—the traditional stitch used in fur work—to join hides edge-to-edge while keeping the fur full and natural-looking. The rotating discs gently grip the leather without crushing the hair, allowing you to create clean, nearly invisible seams that standard leather or fabric machines cannot achieve.

The 202 is commonly used in the production of sheepskin boots, moccasins, fur costumes, rugs, gloves, jackets, blankets, and more, making it a go-to machine for both beginners and experienced fur makers.

APPLICATIONS: Fur hats, mittens, boots, coats, blankets, slippers, moccasins.

Taxidermist dream

I am a taxidermist and do a handful of bear rugs and mountain man hats every year. I have always just hand sewn everything up to this point, 25 years, and my hands don’t work like they use to. My wife convinced me to pull the trigger on a machine and after reading reviews and doing a lot of research, the techsew 202 was exactly what I was looking for. It was a big investment but the time it has saved me, and the quality of work I can do with it, it has paid for itself already, I’ve only had it for 2 months.
Variable speed, ease of use, plenty of power for sewing a bear hide, gentle enough to make muskrat mittens. Extremely versatile. Thank you for a perfect machine. My fingers really appreciate it 😂

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a positive review! We are thrilled to hear that our Techsew 202 has been a game changer for your taxidermy projects. We understand the importance of quality and efficiency in your work, and it makes us happy to know that our machine has helped you achieve that. Thank you for choosing Techsew and we wish you many more successful projects with our machine. Happy sewing! 😊

I have hand sewn furs for years

I have hand sewn furs for years. This machine is a game changer. It is easy to operate and does a great job. The machine is plenty heavy duty for sewing the fur but also the leather and suede. I like the heavy duty table as well.

Thank you for trusting our machine for your fur, leather, and suede sewing needs. We also appreciate your feedback on the heavy duty table. Thank you for choosing Techsew!

Great for fake fur too

I purchased this machine as a costume maker dealing with large amounts of faux fur and tricky seams that I was only able to hand sew before. This machine is the perfect thing, it sews through bulky faux fur and has tight seams on thinner fabrics like minky aswell. The motor adjustment lets me slow the stitch rate down to sew small details, and the machine in general is very easy to operate. Shipping was simple, and by moving the machine and table separately, I was able to carry and assemble it alone. Separately, each piece is like 50ish lbs. Only issue was the machine seemed to be missing a rubber gasket to go between it and the table making the belt a slightly too loose, but I added my own foam spacer underneath and the added hight fixed the belt tension issue.

Thank you for your review! We're glad to hear that the Techsew 202 is working well for you and your costume making needs. It's great to know that it can handle both faux fur and thinner fabrics like minky with ease. We apologize for the missing rubber gasket, but we're happy to hear that you were able to find a solution for the belt tension. Thank you for choosing Techsew!
