The Tailor’s Board Swine is an essential and must-have sewing tool which allows to perform a lot of specific WHP-operations with the highest complexity degree. The Tailor’s Board Swine Convex needs just a few minutes to give required volume and desired shape to garment parts while providing a high-quality pressing for all complex units.

Why should the Tailor’s Board Swine be considered as the best tool among the Tailor’s Boards?

Having convex forms which replicate the women body lines, the Board Swine is primarily designated for the WHP of the women’s clothing. The Board allows to perform something that is absolutely impossible on a flat ironing board – creation of desired volume.  

The functionality of the Board:

• WHP of front and back sides;
• WHP of neck holes;
• WHP of arm holes;
• WHP of shoulder seams (on the narrowing part of the working platform);
• shaping collars;
• WHP of local units (collars of shirts, coats, and suit jackets);
• WHP of lapels, coat breasts;
• WHP of caps of set-in sleeves (on the narrowing part of the working platform);
• WHP of elbow darts before sewing up sleeves;
• WHP of raglan sleeves;
• WHP of darts of all kinds (shoulder, breast, and waist ones);
• shaping bust protuberances;
• WHP of reliefs;
• shaping waistbands for skirts and trousers; 
• WHP of side seams;
• WHP of hems in skirts and dresses;
• shrinking (reduction of garment parts in their linear dimensions for making protuberances);
• retraction (enlargement of garment parts in their linear dimensions for making concave lines);
• final ironing of finished garments;
• steam processing (of the product itself or for removing shiny marks);
• WHP of large, heavy garments (outer clothing);
• WHP of all kinds of forms and configurations;
• WHP of all kinds of loopback elements;

As you can see, the Board Swine Convex demonstrates a much wider range of functionality compared with the common, flat Little Swine with its slightly rounded ends. It services for giving three-dimensional shape to flat garment parts. It is highly suitable for performing the WHP of selected areas whereas the remaining garment parts do not get crumpled.

The Tailor’s Swine is made out of broadleaved wood species — beech/ash/alder tree. Upholstery: foam + 100% cotton. Our Boards are not filled with anything; the working form (the working surface) consists of a single piece of wood.
