Corner sewing factory / tell me what you think about this threading 16k33 singer

[pierre2171]

hey guys how are you?

i am checking to see what is your opinion about this 2 different threading for a 16k33 singer.

first image shows what i do myself, the thread goes first around the post and then to the take up spring at the end.

second image, the thread goes around the post well before to go around the disc and then directly into the take up spring? as i have a leather machine that is like this too without a post before the take up spring, i am wandering if its correct threading for thick material.

 

the ego of peeps today, the guy thinks he does the best levis repro in the world, and inside the hided pocket, they throw some modern rivets instead, plain modern rivets you can find in jeans from supermarket, and it sells for 450e cause they never lived this vintage period they ;earned it in books boon magazine culture....you can well see the top part of the rivets is not flat in the right drawer ( from the video, not from my image) , its not a punch through rivets at all, its a modern rivets to ease the construction, not even the denim fabric selvedge is good and the color, its sad to see arrivists like this. i say.

I only see one picture and that looks good to me except that you have not insert a needle . Sewing machines sew better with needles **kidding**.

Have you checked the manual? Thats usually the 1st thing I would do.

cant you see the second image threading? look the second image and the red line, do you think its good? or a tecnique for thick material?

I know she is missing the metal post there which is also a disc spreader on the 16k33, i have 8 of tehse myself and only 3 machine do comes with the original metal post/disc spreader instead they are using a nail on their machine but the threading?

 

tell me what you think, if its ok or if its the threading of the japanese machu pichu style denim ego?

he owns maybe more than 100k of old machine in collection, and he cant even have a 16k33 complete, which is use 50% for his famous jeans, poor, lol

Moved your post to leather sewing machines

The way you are threading your machine is correct. The red line path is incorrect and is not a special threading pathway for heavy material. Luckily for Conner Sewing, 16 class machines are very forgiving. As a side note, I have a 16K113 in front of me at the moment.

yes that is what i was thinking , anyway their denim is slim 11,5 oz....it must be bad for the stitching doing so....

thanks 111W, she seems a cool lady, sewing hard, but her husband....

if someone knows my machine wertheim? look that wertheim does not have a metal bar where the thread goes around before the take up spring,

the singer 18-2, 18-3., and also Seiko do have one, but this wertheim nothing and no holes for the screw to hold it like in the singer, no traces of a bar before the take up spring, thread goes off the disc direct to take up spring, do you think the machine is complete?

first image is singer with the part.

second image is wertheim without it.
