Bfs Big Freaking Sail Loft



This is the BIG floor at the North loft in Milford Ct




The sewing machines have electric turrets allow them to spin as the sew





I do here a lot about buying import sails BUT i was really surprised at what goes on at Milford

They have 5 looms making ALL the high tech cloth on sight in the USA and upstairs there are huge CNC laser and knife cutting tables tables that cut all the cloth and ship it to there lofts all over the world to be finished
