You don’t have to remove the clamp to install the needle.

Ordered mine off Amazon June 2024 117$ . Took me 2 years to decide to try one, Glad I did. Using it for Horse tack. Does all I need.

I wonder if you can't make two nail-bed-planks that you sandwich the wood between, maybe have 3 pair each more fine than the last. I would consider trying it with wet wood first as wet wood is more flexible.

fantastic ! cheers :)

can i just come by the farm to get help with my machine?? i cant get it to sew!! 😭😭😭

Great information, thanks!

You didn't ferment the tobacco, you stoved it. Very different processes

Why would you leave those screws in the arm, Phillips head screws are insane went out and bought Allen heads, they worked fine

Videos are great ! Very helpful. Still can’t get the thread to catch the bobbin 🙁

Listen to all your videos on the bobbin not picking up the thread, following all your suggestions, nothing worked, finally figured it out, if your needle shaft falls out of the hole on top, if you don't put it back in the hole, in the right position your bobbin won't thread, simple but had me up for 3 nights trying to fix

How did you install the other bearing..the one on the frame.

Thanks finally managed to fix my machine

Thanks I’ll use the new knowledge.just bought two machines. Taking them to Mexico next week to teach leather to young students. Cheers

Followed your video about tear down and reassembly but now my presser foot won't move forward or backwards. Just straight up and down Sir .

I assume there’s no stitch length adjustment?

Thanks

Thank you for making this video and keeping it alive. Definitely got this for leather work, not everything needs a hand stitch.

So far, I have had to work on every surface of this patcher. I think it would have been easier if they would have just thrown the parts in a buck and sent to me. At least I would not have had taken it all apart to do all the cleanup and buffing, grinding oiling and greasing. I guess that just sending us parts kind of what they did, it looks like it was a group of 6-year-old kids that puts these things together wherever these things are made. Thinks for shining light on how to make them work. You da man!

👍

My bobbin thread won’t come up. What am I doing wrong?

GOAT u are. Best videos on the Tube! Thank You Sir!!

Really appreciated the step-by-step instructions on this video. I was able to completely disassemble the machine and successfully reassemble it because of the information you provide. I typed up the steps for my own sanity but had to keep referring back to sections on the video to watch how some pieces fit back together. Thank you very much for going to the trouble to make this. Very helpful.

Thank you so much for all your help...Much appreciated from Canada

Thank you. For sharing your knowledge👍

Thank you sir I was about to give up until this last video; mine was not even close! Thanks again brothers 👊🏼

You could spend your money on better books.. Not enough info to justify the cost. If I'm paying that much I want more than childrens drawings. Odd that the hardcover and paperback are different even though they are supposed to be the same and the fact that there are numerous webpages for this book is suspect. Did someone pay for this review?

Thanks man you help me out in my 1998 mazda pick-up 4x4

38:00 plastic washer between cam-frame and crank-frame. something like PET 0.010" thick, two each side. i really like this machine. next step... nickel plating.

Tanks for your help

Thanks for all the information I really enjoy watching your videos unfortunately I still can’t get the nettle to bring up the thread. It worked when I got it two days ago but it was really stiff so I greased and oiled it and now it runs smooth but I still have the thread nettle problem. I did everything you mentioned over and over. I hate to send it back but I’ve been working on it for two days. Keep up the good work. Skip Franklin

SO HELPFUL! It’s wild to me that the same video from 7 years ago helped my with one i bought in 2024 and for about the same ~$110 price. I did have to use a diamond file to smooth some parts and i did degrease the exterior but i was up and sewing by the end of your video. Thank you so much and happy sewing!

Hi sir, i cant get my bobbin thread even after following your instructions. My top thread keeps breaking, any advice?

Just think Hemp is finally making a comeback after probably a hundred year break. Before cotton took over the jean and clothing market dang near all clothing was made from either hemp,wool, or leather

👀

A lot of great videos 👍👍

It’s seems like I have machine setup like you have but needle not picking up bobbin tread

What size thread do you use to see harness

At 15:20 I found where an extra nut goes that I had left over after I took the Big Rocking Arm off, put a butane torch to it and bent the circular end to the angle it needs to be. I put it all back together and wondered where in the Sam Hill that extra nut came off of. Thanks to you I see now. It goes on the back of the bolt that fastens the Little Rocking Arm to the chassis! Delighted! I love these inexpensive machines because they are so cheap you don't have to be afraid of screwing up big time. Not to mention they really work nicely!

No idea if you still watch this or not. I’m at a complete loss. Everything seems ready then I put my test piece and can’t get a stitch. Help!

excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks, really helpful!

Great help!

Nice video, no BS

Has the cost effectiveness improved since this excellent video was made?

Would you happen to have the address or the number of the needle sizes? I am looking for a 20 to 21 for my machine. Please let me know.

Wow Harrison this is an Awesome video. Long but needed for all the detail you needed to cover. Plus, the links for additional information needed to do a complete repair/recondition of the unit. Thank you for sharing this wealth of information. I will be ordering my unit this week so i can time its arrival. Your video convinced me that it can be a great tool. One question, you mentioned fine sandpaper to polish are we talking like 600 grit or do i need something finer ? Great job... Dan 😊

You deserve a gift. Send me some info so I can send you a payment. I really needed this thank you❗️🙏🏿
