Thank you, Ken, for this video. I've had my Rex518 hemmer, just like this one, for two years, and never yet used it on anything, as I had no confidence. Your video helped me and I have success now!! I could never figure out how to end it without it unchaining, and also needing to rethread the needle. Thanks, so much!!!

This youtube solved my skipping stitches problem (changed the needle as it was bent from yanking the thread)! YAY!!! Now I'm sewing a hem in a lightweight drapery and the thread keeps breaking. I've rethreaded, changed tension, changed the needed and changed the thread. Nothing works. Any suggestions? I have the portable REX machine.
@kevinsews
@kevinsews 7 жыл бұрын
Back off on the tension. The thicker the fabric the looser the tension n a blindhemmer. If that doesn't fix the problem then the fabric might be too thick and dense for your portable hemmer. I own one and I wouldn't try much beyond clothing fabrics on it. Even then some of the really thicker knits cause problems with it.

Kevin, thank you so much for your tutorial. I appreciate what you're saying but I am still not clear on how to do this. By the "2 fingers" do you mean the 2 prongs of the thing that pulls the thread back and forth? Cut it right at the mid point between? I've tried that and it doesn't lock. Actually I have never been able to get it to lock pulling at it either so I must be missing something in a big way. I tend to hand hem for this very reason. Any clarification would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

So glad I found your site. I think I have the machine threaded properly, but when the machine runs, the stitches are not staying in. The loops are not forming or not all the time.. I see the tread coming up through the needle into the material, but loop does not always form all the way, does not stitch or occasionally. I am using scrap pieces of creased material. Any thoughts? Thank you

Either you've not threaded the machine properly; the needle is bad; or your machine timing is off.

Hey Kevin, There's a US blind stitch (or is it Union Special) model 718-c-6 for sale near me three hundred bucks. Do you know anything about these machines? Can they still be serviced/refurbished? This one is in "excellent working condition," according to the seller. I just haven't found much info on them. I assume US blind stitch was an industry standard. Any thoughts?

Go test it. Mine was used and it has worked flawlessly. I did test it. I took along some curtains and a pair of woman's knit dress pants to test. It hemmed them without any problem and I knew it was working just fine. I paid $700 for mine, but it had a one year warranty because it was sold to me by a local dealer.

@@kevinsews Hey man, thanks for the response. I'm a beginner sewer and I probably don't need a blind hemmer on it's own cool industrial base, but, I'm a woodworker by trade and a bit of a tool junkie, so that. In the owner's posted hemmer photo there was a dressmaker's form so I was interested to hear about her sewing experience--an amateur lifer as it turns out. She seems open to helping me as a novice sewer which is great. And the machine deal is no pressure. Thanks for the feedback and videos.

I've never heard about yanking it out when I worked for sewing Factory they had little shepherd's hook that would come down and cut the thread right there in between. But if I could recommend that you not talk about killing two birds with one stone it doesn't sit well for those of us that have pet birds that would be like saying I can kill two dogs with one bullet or cats for that matter but how about there's more than one way to cook an egg. Thank you for your tutorial

@kevinsews 5 жыл бұрын
Your factory was unique with their training. I can't tell you how many factory workers just stopping and pulling the fabric quickly toward the back of the machine to break the thread. Sorry if an old saying offends you. I own a peach cockatoo named Charlie Bird. I'll have to ask him if he is offended with that statement. ;)

@kevinsews

Okay, that is because the feed finger can't grab the fabric to feed it. One of the ways to solve this is attach a leader fabric with a couple of basting stitches to the front of the seam. This will allow the feeding finger to feed it through. Once finished with the hem remove the basting stitches and the leader fabric.
