Hi gregoire, glad to have you join us! :welcome:

I don't have this particular machine, but I'm pretty sure there are at least a few people here who do and can help you. I think that will make it a little easier for someone to help you if you could be a little more specific about what you're trying to do, and what kind of problem you're running into.

Kate,

Thank you! I basically would need all the info I could get. From the set up, making sure I am threading the machine properly, to help adjusting tention to get a proper stitch.

I have the machine set up and have tried to stitch some leather but the loops on the bottom are not getting tight and are getting stuck on the bobbin.

I will try to take a few picture and attach them to this post.

I am thinking of trying to hire someone locally (san Diego) to help me with the initial set up.

I would try the local shoe repair shop.

Ask them to teach you about the machine ( not shoe repair as they may not want to create a competitor) offer them some compensation for time and effort. The worst that can happen is they may say YES :)

CampbellRandall has some videos on Youtube I think, and the machines are pretty much alike, if you can run one, you can run the other.

Good luck,

Kevin

Still no luck!

Any help would be great!

thank you

Try threading the top thread under the first take-up roll and over the second. You have it over the first, therefore the machine will not pull enough thread, leaving the large loops.

Thank you. i did correct that a few days ago.

It is a little better but I still have long loops in the bottom of the leather.
