HOW TO USE THE SPEEDY STITCHER (REVISITED)

[@joshhenderson3444]

Thank you for being very thorough. I have never done anything like this before and it was a huge help in repairing my boat canvas.

[@SaskHunting]

Thank you sir:)

Hi. Finally I found someone who shows the bobbin setup as well. Now I'm gonna rewind mine I got in the mail. Perfect size for my hands. Thank you for your tutorial. Cheers from Australia just subbed.nice work 🙂👍👍👍

[@SaskHunting]

No problem, I’m glad I ended up making the video after making the coyote hat.

[@Gator-357]

I use a needle threader to help thread the stitcher, especially when using smaller threads and I also attatch a no.4 saddle makers or glovers needle to the tag end to facilitate getting it through the loop on the back side much easier. Also to rewind the bobbin, I either stick it on the needle and use the stitcher as a handle and spin the bobbin with my fingers or if using smaller thread, stick the bobbin on a small wooden dowel and use my drill to spin it making sure to wind the thread evenly and hold the master bobbin on another dowel holding them both level and "facing" each other so the thresd comes off and from the side of the master bobbin and not the end, to prevent twisting, like you would do for a spinning reel when loading monofilament.

[@SaskHunting]

Great heads up! I appreciate the tip! Thanks:)

[@daverobb8311]

I wish this was the first video I saw on how to use this. Great job explaining each step thank you.

[@SaskHunting]

Thanks:)

[@autumnwoodph]

To help get your wax thread through the wooden hole, use a common needle threader-the little aluminum things with the thin wire on the end...😊...as I am getting old, I can’t thread a needle without it.

[@SaskHunting]

Thanks appreciate the tip!

[@stemer1149]

Both of your videos helped me very much getting started, new speedy stitch owner here.. Thank you very much. Now I can go and repair that seam on my trailer cover (Anhängerverdeckreißverschlussnaht ist gerissen (German))

[@SaskHunting]

+Stemer114 Thanks Stemer

To wind a bobben: Take off Chuck, Put bobben on end of the Speedy stitcher and use as a handle. Works really well, and so much easier ;)

[@jimmienewton6465]

I've had good luck with my "ending knot" by using Super Glue. Tie 2 overhand knots as you showed. Then, put a dab of Super Glue on the knot that's big enough to saturate the knot. Let it dry a minute or so, then clip it short with the scissors. Have had no problems with this method on the (admittedly few) Speedy Stitching projects I've done like my arrow quiver & such. I also used some on the end of the thread to "stiffen" it up to help feed it through the hole in the wood handle, eye of the needle, & such..... Hee hee. With Super Glue & Duct tape, you could rule the world!

[@azclaimjumper]

Thank you for answering my unasked question; the length of the tag end when starting & you said TWICE the length of the seams to be sewn. 1. Personally, I prefer using the SMALL needle with the "Course" thread. The smaller needle punches a smaller hole in the fabric + is easier to push through a seam or a couple layers of thick fabric. 2. On the first stitch, after pushing the needle through the fabric, I hold the thread, withdraw the needle & then pull the tag end through the hole. This way, more of the wax stays on the tag end of the thread. 3. I reload an empty bobbin by inserting one end of the bobbin into the chuck of my Electric Drill, I lay the drill on its side, then pull the trigger so it turns slowly. The other hand feeds the thread & maintains uniform tension as the thread is filling the bobbin. 4. How about showing practical use of Speedy Stitcher by sewing a patch over an almost worn out knee or cutting off the bottom of a pocket with holes & replacing the bottom with stronger material or sewing the seams that are beginning to separate in the seat of a pair of military pants.

Put the spool on a drill bit wrapped with a little tape ... use a cordless drill to turn the spool

[@SaskHunting]

Thanks will try it out:)

[@nicolekaio2090]

No matter how tight i tighten the chuck the needle pulls out....what am i doing wrong??

[@SaskHunting]

Sounds like the threading of the chuck is hindering it from screwing down completely. It may be getting stuck on some poorly designed threading or the threading has some large metal burrs that are stopping the movement. I would take a flash light and have a peak to see if this is the case? Take a metal brush and gently drag it along the threads of the chuck to knock of any burrs? See if that helps:)

[@angelaviles8819]

I just started stitching myself thank you for the video very well explained

[@PanyingPilot]

That can be read in a funny way too! Good chuckle.

[@youyouulf]

Don't stitch yourself! It's painful and causes a blooded mess!

[@davelowell3008]

Thank you Mr. Rodgers, I'm going to make my own convertible boot for my Mustang.

[@Moostery]

Damn. I found something at the flea market I thought was the speedy stitcher but made a long time ago. Turns out it's basically the same exact thing, just made better. Maybe an early model of it? Got it for a buck so I'm stoked.

[@SaskHunting]

What a business strategy! Make something that’s ingenuitive, works properly and is costed effectively so the general public can purchase it! Wow! Maybe people will appreciate it and tell others about it!? Go figure!!

[@GOTMV]

To avoid twisting the thread, roll the bobbin across a flat surface rather than wrapping the thread on the bobbin.

[@SaskHunting]

Good point, thanks:)

[@danielgagnon6468]

Scissor,should not open beer nor be a screw driver they must cut.... he he... many tanks for your instructive video nice sewing.

[@gregoryclark3870]

[@SaskHunting]

I agree sir, very effective, but leaves a giant hole in its wake:)

[@vidbot]

Much better sound and quality. Thanks!

[@竹内功一朗-m5k]

値段は幾らですか(どのょうにして購入できるのか)

[@campervanbug7658]

Think tooth floss would work good?

[@SaskHunting]

I do believe it would as well!

[@55418und]

Use a variable speed cordless drill to spin the spool.

[@SaskHunting]

Thanks:)

[@Theworldisyouroyster156]

But why is it faster? Seems the same time as regular sewing would be. No?

[@Heikki_Finland]

Is the "Awl for all" familiar to you? I have watched videos of these two and starting to lean on the Speedy Stitcher as a winner which i maybe buy some day, but i'm not sure.

[@SaskHunting]

No Sir, I haven’t tried the Awl for all.

[@joescheller6680]

first timer here very good demonstration, only thing that would improve it is if you did my project, oh well cant do that over the computer, thanks

[@dannyhester8673]

Thank you for the help

[@bobwhelk2117]

What’s the deal with your audio? I can barely hear you.

[@BK-vh3do]

the only difference I see between this and the leather sewing awl is the hole for the tension . a leather awl changed with a hole & a screw for tension

[@macgyver2417]

BK Good idea.Have u tried it?

[@youyouulf]

This is too clumsy and time consuming! Instead of holding the cloth (or whatever you're sewing) between your fingers, struggling to get the parts aligned when forcing the needle through, why don't you just screw a wide (1 1/2 or 2") heavy duty angle iron to your desktop (or to a plank clamped to the desktop) so you can push the material against it, making sure that the needle hits a hole in the angle iron, just like on a sewing machine, only the base is vertical instead of horizontal. You will avoid bunching, and sewing will speed up significantly.

[@SaskHunting]

Where the hell were you 3 years ago??😂
