Evo160K Posted May 11, 2015 Author Report Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) The video showing the thread breaking problem that I'm trying to post is too large for the LW 1.46MB maximum. I've learned how to resize it, but doing so doesn't leave enough video to show the problem properly. The next best thing is to break the video into thirds with each third being a separate post. Playing each third in sequence will demonstrates the issue. The first video stands alone and shows the machine sewing properly without material. Please be assured, the foot and feed dog do not touch at any time. First video - no material My Movie no material - first.wmv Second video - no material My Movie no material.wmv First third with material My Movie first third of tape.wmv Second third with material My Movie second third.wmv Third third with material My Movie third third.wmv Anyone have any ideas why this thread is breaking? Thank you very much for your input. Edited May 11, 2015 by Evo160K Quote

Thank you very much for your input. You don't upload it to LW. You upload the full size file to a free account at dropbox. That file will now have a url address. You then copy that address and post just the address on LW. When someone goes to the address, the video plays. Dropbox has metric boatloads of hard drive space for all of your videos. LW does not. That is why file sizes are limited on the site. You could also create a youtube account, upload the video and post a link to it here instead of dropbox.

Evo160K Posted May 11, 2015 Author Report Posted May 11, 2015 Great explanation TinkerTailor, I can understand that. Thank you. Is Dropbox more private than YouTube; for example, would my video show up on a Google search? Quote
Members TinkerTailor Posted May 11, 2015 Members Report Posted May 11, 2015 Yeah, you have alot more privacy settings on dropbox. You can make youtube videos private and things, but it is a pain. Youtube is a public site that added some privacy settings and drop box is a private storage site with public access options, if that helps.

Evo160K Posted May 11, 2015 Author Report Posted May 11, 2015 TinkerTailor, You do have a knack for making it simple. Thank you. Quote
Members Constabulary Posted May 11, 2015 Members Report Posted May 11, 2015 You can also mark the Videos on Youtube as "Not Listed". I always do that. But I honestly find Youtube not very comfortable to use. But thats probably just me. Lots of other Youtube punks seems to like it.

Evo160K Posted May 11, 2015 Author Report Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) Thanks Constabulary. Do you have any thoughts on why the thread in the video is breaking. The thread is a 138 coated fiberglass and the needle is a 23. It's a puzzle why it sews well without material but not with. A number 25 titanium coated needle didn't help.

Members Darren Brosowski Posted May 11, 2015 Members Report Posted May 11, 2015 I have had to step back and go through the posts and I am left with the odd question. 1/ Why do you want to try and run this rediculously technical thread? 2/ This thread is normally used in high value applications where the thread supplier would be involved in machine set up so are you going to try and manufacture specialist high value items? 3/ If two is true then why are you trying to get advice from a site like this? 4/ If two is not true then just use a realistic thread.

Darren Perhaps he has a whole bunch to use up and can't bring himself to throw it out. Or the people who made it are long gone. Where else are we supposed to ask questions about how to do what we are not supposed to be able to do with Mr. Leather and his tools and machines? .......That was a mouthful.....phew Quote "If nobody shares what they know, we will eventually all know nothing."
