So glad I watched this! I was contemplating buying the Singer because my old Husqvarna (Optima 630) doesn't like thicker layers when making bags. Singer is definitely not an option now. TY for posting.

Remember the Sailrite is a portable machine meant to go out to sea. Frighteningly powerful in a small package. It's built to sew up a dacron sail and get you back to the dock. Presser foot height is the biggest limitations of that machine. If you are making Tactical gear, Backcountry gear or equine gear, you'll hit the wall in foot height. If you lower the needle bar height a slight and step up to a #22 needle, you can sew the max thickness you attempted. Try sewing with PTFE and you may run out of cuss words. She is a fussy little sewing machine, and you will trash a dozen cap springs learning to sew with it. Crashes and drop stitches are most always operator error. It is not built for production sewing like a Consew or a Juki but there are some jobs in the shop it does best.

Very helpful for understanding the concept. How about staples or pins on the seam allowance? I'm thinking they wouldn't need to be removed until the whole seam is sewn. Have you had bad experience with those, leading to a preference for clips?

I bought the Singer 6700c last year. It sews more like the machines that I grew up with, that just sewed on. It cost me $300. The biggest reason I bought this is because I do use the embroidery stitches on projects. It was OK. This was my compromise because I wanted a Reliable Barracuda or SailRite for heavy wool and denim. Although the Barracuda is half the price of SailRite, $600 was out of my means. I have a Bernina Bernette that I bought 20 years ago and it's so damned weak and jammed on everything. It cost me about $400. My kids told me if I can come up with $200, they will match the rest for a Barracuda. 😊

This is super helpful and for me focused in the right place. In general I have my tension set pretty even but occasionally and sometimes after seeing over another seam (I quilt) it bunches a bit and then I can pull away a bit on the bunch to flatten and the stitch breaks. Any ideas? Thanks! 🙏

I am talking about the small black piece sewn at the end of the zipper. Could you provide information on how to make this piece?

I have this machine and the one thing it's missing is a knee lift. It was not designed to even have one. Even my Singer S18 has a knee lift as does my industrial Juki. When you use a knee lift you wonder how you ever sewed without one! It's a vital feature! Great video...thank you for taking the time to post it.

Hi there, so I have a ikonix ks335A and the problem I keep having is 1. The bobbin that came with my machine slide right off when attempting to do the tension testing. 2. I'm using nylon 69 which is what is recommended but my top tread keeps on unraveling (splitting) any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated 😊

I wind all my bobbins on a seperate machine. I have a..... 5523 😁 on the side i use for thinner projects and bobbin winding while my MC400 is hammering away and my main project is on the main machine.

Great video. I'm considering getting one of these but can't decide between the LS1 or LSZ1. I generally don't need the zigzag feature and can always use my home machine if I need to. One difference between the two machines is that the LS1 has a narrower foot, and at Sailrite they mention it's better ant getting into tight corners. Do you think the rather wider foot on the LSZ1 is in any way a hindrance, especially if you will be sewing something on the smaller side?
@BagBuff2 ай бұрын
I’d assume you can pick up the narrow foot for when you are using straight stitch on the LS1. The feet are the least of my concerns. I’d get the machine that does what you need it to do. The accessories can be modified to your specific needs.

Should be good for standard elastics. Once you get to heavy elastics it’ll depend on thread and if it’ll hold during intensive use. For clothing, it would be fine.

Opal Viking machine. The needle isn’t hitting anything when the wheel is turning. The bobbin thread is coming up normally. The top thread is catching. The bobbin casing is doing a “thock” sound; all of a sudden there is a knotted mess in the bobbin casing, and the top thread has cut. Please help. I have a sample due and don’t have time to get this serviced.

Might be top thread not fully engaged in the tension discs

This might be a bit late but a size 18 needle is way too small for thick leather as the friction grips the thread. For what you tested with both leather and plastic you should be on a size above 21. I tend to use a 23 most of the time but change down to a 21 when working with woven textiles.
@BagBuffАй бұрын
Needle size depends on thread size and material. When I manufactured leather goods I used a size 18 needle to keep the holes tight and it worked great 🤷♂️

hey, how are you? I just found your videos. I would like to know wich sewing machine do you recommend for a fashion student? Like an Industry sewing machine (like the one you use(I don't know wich it is)) or something more normal like the heavy duty from singer? Or maybe you can tell how I can search for the machine that fits me. If you have the time to answer my question. It would be great! Greetings Lia
@BagBuff2 ай бұрын
Depends on the type of clothing you’ll be sewing. If you’ll be doing denim at all, I’d recommend a medium weight machine that can sew light to medium fabrics. This could be anything from a Singer Heavy Duty to a Sailrite (home portable machines). I’d recommend finding a machine that is a drop feed or a needle feed if you’re wanting to go industrial. Most lightweight industrial machines will cover what you’d need to sew in a fashion environment.
