Just received from where I got my JL341 inc 10 more bobbins.  £55 delivered.  Now to work out how it works. I do love playing.

OK, so it took a bit of fettling but from what I've learned ALL binders need some fetting. For starters, in my ignorance I asked for the wrong folder and it was too small.

I had a couple of this type to play with and they seemed a bit simpler.

Took a bit of working out to get it in the right place whilst retaining all the up/down backwards/forwards options. I also wanted to keep the original bits in case I need them later.

Yay! My first ever bind. not perfect yet but definitely progress. I won't show you the back side just yet

So near and yet so far. Epic fail. How do I get the tape to come out of the folder the same on both sides of the leather? Is it a question of what type of tape is used?

Hi Toxo, moved your post to leather sewing machines.  I think you might get the attention of the right members here.
