Gordo, I just picked up this machine yesterday, and just wanted to say thanks for making the videos. You explain and show the details very well. I am a hobbyist looking to do my project cars, and your videos are going to help a lot! Subscribed!

[@66Gordo]

Sweet!! Hope you like that new machine. They are workhorses. Glad the videos helped. Thanks for watching, commenting, and supporting my channel.

[@AffinityTumbling]

Mark D - I am in the same boat. Working on project cars. I am excited to get to use this!

Great explanation

[@66Gordo]

Thanks for the comment and watching my video. I appreciate it

[@LetsPointFingers]

Thank you for the very informative video! I’ve got a question, I hope that you can help me. My hand lift for the presser foot is very tight and difficult to lift up and down while yours seem to just flip easily. Do you have a suggestion on how to fix it. Thank you!

[@66Gordo]

Thanks for watching and commenting. I have 2 machines one the lever is really easy to lift the other one isn't. I really don't know what the deal is with them. If you have access to a sewing machine shop or distributor id ask them to be sure. Id only be guessing.

[@abcardenas35]

Thanks bro 🙏

[@66Gordo]

Yes sir. Glad it helped. Thanks for watching and commenting. I appreciate it

[@davidbohn5632]

Have you done a video on how to adjust the presser foot height?

[@66Gordo]

Hello. No I haven't did a video on that. I usually have the shop I bought my machine from do the service on my machines.

[@eddieeggleston6642]

What size thread are you using? Once I go through the 1st thread guides (the flat bar that you wrap around) and through the next 2 guides it doesn't want to flow. The thread gets stuck on the flat bar sections.

[@66Gordo]

I used 92 weight. Did you follow your thread path make sure it wasn't getting caught on anything anywhere else. I've never had that problem

[@eddieeggleston6642]

@@66Gordo I had partially followed another video and that's where trouble started. There's a small pin on right side of the first tensioner that he said to go over. And your instructions didn't. Got it going now. Your instructions are correct which I'm sure you know. Thanks for your response.

[@66Gordo]

Oh ok. Good. Glad you figured it out and it was a easy fix. Thanks for watching and commenting on my channel

[@williamm4442]

I'm having issue of getting my thread to pickup from bobin.

[@66Gordo]

I've had 2 other people have this problem. One was hand cranking his handwheel away from him rather than towards him. Another had problems after he had been messing with the tension. I don't know if the timing might be a possibility also. I hope this helps or you already figured it out

[@williamm4442]

@@66Gordo my tension got way to loose

[@colescornerandcreations3870]

What kind of thread does this machine use?

[@66Gordo]

I have a video called " nylon bonded thread"

[@AffinityTumbling]

@@66Gordo I was hoping you would have something for this as well!

[@danzar1729]

You missed the little pin on the tension discs.

[@vadim3976]

Nope. You're totally wrong and this is a common mistake. The only purpose of this pin is to prevent a rotation of the tension discs. He's 99% right. Threading should be done with the presser foot raised.

[@Raederman85]

Do you know how much aggravation I went through because NO ONE else has said this?!?!?!? THANK YOU!!!

[@Raederman85]

@@vadim3976 Thank you!!!!! My comment is to you!

[@vadim3976]

@@Raederman85 Anytime (c). I have come a long way of trial and error with my sewing machines by myself. Therefore, I am always open to share info with others.

[@Raederman85]

@@vadim3976 My father and half brother have been sewing for almost 40 years now in the Awning business. I’m still sort of new to it. I had to change the thread, and of course it broke trying to pull through. I went through 30 minutes of aggravation before I came across your comment as my brother and father were out on business.
