DIY Face Mask From A Hepa Filtration Vacuum Bag
In this video we make a face mask out of hepa filtration vacuum cleaner bag. We know these are not as good as the N95 masks, but it is another option that offers some sort of filtration when in a pinch. It’s not fully sealed to your face but the material itself is rated to filter down to .3 microns. Our family has run a sewing and vacuum store for over 40 years and in that time we have never come across HEPA vacuum bags that contain fiberglass.

Sewing Machine Feed Problem and Solution - Dirty Feed Dogs
Просмотров 63 тыс.5 лет назад
*I'm sorry for the shakey video but it was filmed spur of the moment on an iPhone. We have a machine that came into the shop with feeding problems: the customer complained that the machine was not feeding properly and stitch length was off and the needle plate was bouncing. This is a common problem caused by lint/debris build up between the feed dog body and the needle plate. For a more in dept...
Simple $3 DIY Skateboard Rack

New Website Under Construction - JackCreekRoad.com We needed a simple board rack to hold 4 boards, so we came up with this. It's not fancy at all, but it gets the job done! We started with two, 8ft long furring strips. We spent a good amount of time finding the two straightest strips we could fine at our local home center. Then using the miter saw, we cut 8 pieces (8.25 inches long) with a 37 d...

Does your sewing machine bobbin direction matter?
Просмотров 11 тыс.6 лет назад
One of the first things people point out when sewing machine problems occur is the direction of the bobbin. But the odds are sewing/tension issues are more likely cause by missing tension disks/springs. So in this short video I try to illustrate how little your bobbin direction effects your machine's stitch. Inevitably someone will say that their machine is different because it's top loading, w...

Sewing Machine Problems: Thread Looping/Bunching - Presser Foot Position
Просмотров 47 тыс.8 лет назад
In this video we try to clarify how your presser foot position while threading can and will effect your tension. As you see in the video, threading with your presser foot down will result in your thread sitting on the outside of your tension disks rather than inside. When this happens you will have no upper tension resulting in loops and bunching on the bottom side of your material. To remedy t...

Hi there! I know it's been plenty of times before, but I decided to make a cheap pan head from a broken kitchen timer. I wanted to fit it to work with a cheap smart phone tripod but not be permanently attach it. The first step was to disassemble the timer. I was able to remove the large silver screw from the tripod so the camera holder would still attach to it (This was then epoxied to the piec...

Ruching (Gathering) A LuLaRoe Julia Dress
Просмотров 12 тыс.8 лет назад
Here's a simple way to add ruching (gathering) to a dress. I would recommend measuring your dress while it's on to determine where you would like the ruching to start and stop. You may want to mark your material for reference. It's important to remember to only stretch the elastic as you sew it in without stretching your dress. A couple other notes: My machine's lights work fine in person, but ...

What Happens If You Miss The Take Up Lever On Your Sewing Machine
thank you, I thought i broke my machine 😂
Yeah, sorry to state the obvious but, yeah, you can source the wood from a tip or dump, but you've got new wood, and that's about $20's worth of wood, screws $6 screws, wood glue $8 = $34, $3? Sorry, no, but it's a good looking rack though, thanks 👍
Good vid but 3 bucks? I guess the adhesive products and screws were free lol
Y’know, here I was sitting worrying about the BRAND NEW machine I just bought, and read the comments about rethreading…. I thought to myself “surely not, I just threaded it!” ….. 😔 it came unthreaded….
Oh my goodness. I am a complete novice and I was about to have to call a repair person to fix my machine. I still have no idea why running it without the bobbin worked , but it did. I probably spent an hour in 10 times having the thread bunch at the bottom before I stumbled upon your video. Thank you so much!
A mighty thumbs up 👍. You are a life saver ❤
So if I am sewing quite thick material I should loosen the tension?
It depends. If you have the ability to adjust the presser foot pressure, I would start with that, If you don't know how, respond with your model number and I'll see if I can help you further.
Just so you know that this video is still helpful to people even 7 years after you posted it. My grandma gifted me her sewing machine but being a beginner I barely knew how to use it. I was getting extremely frustrated with jamming issues and was about to quit my project till your video helped me realize I was threading my machine and missing the take up lever!!
Glad I could help!
You are a very good teacher! Thank you!
Thank you from Sri Lanka 🙏
The information is simple and easily understood. Thanks Glynn Condit 😊
So well and clearly explained. Very informative. Thank you very much.
THANK YOU!!! Finally. Very grateful.
This was one of the best videos I've seen on RUclips, hands down. Concise and covered so much ground. Any chance of a timing repair video?
Most useful video. Many thanks.
Thanks a lot
Thank you, excellent advice.
I’m new at sewing and within seconds of your video I learned 2 things thank you!
This has been so helpful. I've been sewing for almost 60 years and was familiar with knowing that I should adjust tension, turn wheel correctly, all the things you've shown -- but I didn't know the 𝙬𝙝𝙮. That close-up of the top tension mechanism was so helpful. As was the part about top-loading bobbins vs front loading. I am about to buy a new machine and now I will look at it more closely and try to get one with metal parts, and for which I can use my current bobbin collection. Thank you so much.
Thank you !!!!
Thank you for your solution!
I really enjoined your video, I am a beginner, do you have a video on why my Brother machine is making a clanging noise and the thread is bundled up on the bottom ?
fabulous thanks
A great, informative video. Thank you.
Wow, I realize this video was three years ago but truly helped me with my machine. I was going to buy a new one cause I thought I had bought junk. I do appreciate so much thank you.
I have learned lots from your video. One of the best ever as to explaining tension. THANK YOU!!!
I hardly know anything about sewing and I'm scared of my spiffy new sewing machine because I can't problem-solve when things go wrong. This video helped me so much. Thank you!
I was scared of my spiffy new machine too, although I've been sewing for about 55 yrs 🤭 I'm glad it just wasn't me 😅 I did learn a bunch of new stuff they never taught in home ec many years ago 😊
I had the same issue where the take up lever wasn't the problem, but the issue was that I cleaned the machine and the thread tension wheel was set to zero, causing it to not pull up the threads. Same symptoms, different cause. In case anyone reads this and can't find the problem :) This might be the solution if the thread is already well positioned in the Take Up Lever.
THANK YOU
I have that gorgeous Bernina that you did the demo on. Great informative video. Thanks
A good video. If you ever feel like expanding I’d love to see more bobbin cases paired with bobbins
Brilliant. Thank you.
You are an inspiration sir. Everything you said makes sense to me and I am brand new to sewing. Because of you, I have what I now call the ten commandements of sewing pinned on the wall to review before I start sewing. Each one starts with Always. Absolutely life changing. Thank you, thank you!
Mine does this but it hasn’t been removed from take up 😢 what else could it be? HELP ❤
So glad this came up on my feed. I was struggling with bobbin tension . Increased the thread tension slightly and BAM perfect stitch! Thank you!
Great video thanks
Thank you Sir
Very good explanations
Never too late to learn .Thanks for sharing your thoughts ..❤
My singer 5050 the presser foot is slow to come down. Is there any thing I can do to troubleshoot this problem?
You can put a drop of oil on the presser foot lifter shaft at the top where it goes in the machine and see if it helps cycle, before going through more elaborate trouble shooting
Loved the video. Thank you
This is very informative. A great lesson to help us sewing enthusiasts and actually know what to do to keep things functioning smoothly without frustration👍
Great instructions, never have had these points taught
Very helpful. Thank you 🙏!
Brilliant video. I have learned so much….. Thanks.
Thank you. Literally the first issue was my issue. Was getting frustrated cos my thread was getting wasted 😅
Best video everrrrr for a newbie
I thought i understood tension obviously i didnt. I will re try before dumping my older machine as tension has been a big problem and i thought it was busted. I never knew about pressure foot up. Thank you
You are an Awesome teacher! THANKYOU 😊
