AlZilla Posted June 1, 2023 Report Posted June 1, 2023 (edited) Just showing off here. I've been tinkering with this machine on and off for close to a year. Used the clutch motor for a while and it now has a 550watt servo and a speed reducer. I counted 56 stitches in 60 seconds at my slowest speed. Here it sewed a single layer of fairly hard 3.8MM veg tan and then 2 layers. A shade over a quarter inch. It griped a little on the thicker piece. I still need to look at the feed dog height and adjust the walking foot lift height. And, obviously, a pressure issue if I want to sew 6.8mm. I'll keep this one threaded with 138 top and bottom.

Members Lori58 Posted May 23, 2024 Members Report Posted May 23, 2024 It needs a deep cleaning. Gunky underneath, but I'll have the machine cleaned and oiled this weekend! At the moment it has a Yamata clutch motor/max 1725 RPM. Quote
