Members ozleather Posted July 31 Members Report Posted July 31 Can these sewing machine marks be minimized? I used Juki 1541. Thank you Quote
Members DieselTech Posted July 31 Members Report Posted July 31 Try going over the stitches with a polished leather hammer. Or a polished bone folder. Quote
Members Cumberland Highpower Posted July 31 Members Report Posted July 31 Might be some plates/feet/dogs that are smooth for that machine? There's a guy in Japan that makes wallets among other things and he uses Seikos with large knurled presser wheels. Wheel marks everywhere, but that's part of his trademark look. Just saying if you can't beat'em, maybe join'em? Quote
Digit Posted July 31 Report Posted July 31 I stick a bit of paper masking tape underneath my machine's feet to smooth out the teeth if needed. Most of the time I sew lightweight things and I use a very small walking foot (aound 2x3mm smooth footprint), which I think is intended to sew near zippers or around magnets/buttons. Quote
