ShortyLV

I will do some more work on the machine after around a day. I'll keep you posted. Regarding unscrewing - no, didn't get to that yet.

Thread tensions seems to be the main culprit. I have done as much to decrease tension for both sides but I am stuck - no more room to unscrew the top part (very little room to be honest).

Thanks, everyone. I will be going through some adjustments then.

So I did my timing (minor adjustment, nothing really big). Issue is still there. I think I have mistaken the sound from bottom that mixes with the top as the sound existed without the bottom loop thread.

Thanks for the ideas. I saw Uwe's video and I am putting it as a LAST resort as it is very technical (Not overly, but still requires a lot of disassembly and adjustment work.)

Howdy/Hello. I've got a mystery that I am trying to figure out for my Sieck-branded 441 clone. There is a mysterious clang that has been around since I got the machine but I've always thought of it as part of the machine-spirit so to say. Recently, after getting some new presser feet, I've been doing some work to adjust the machine and started to understand that other clones just don't have this type of issue. I've attached a two videos. The one that is normal speed is with sound and you can hear the clang. The other video is a slow motion of the bottom bobbin mechanism. I have noticed it seems to pinch the thread between the moving parts - not sure if it is intended. https://imgur.com/Cm3WFKn https://imgur.com/LIIctAc Thank you in advance. If I am missing some things, then I will update asap.
