Save a lot of hooks and other parts that way. If I recall, I mention that in the video." I did not realize this was your video, or I would never have linked to it without attribution. Thanks for all the excellent information you share on this forum and elsewhere! -DC Quote Machines: Juki LU-563, Consew 206-RB5, Singer 20U33, Pfaff 481, Mitsubishi CU-865-22, Consew 29B, Rebadged Juki LU-562, Mitsubishi LS2-180, Seiko SK-6, Juki LG-158-1
Members gottaknow Posted April 8, 2015 Members Report Posted April 8, 2015 No worries DC, I'm just glad some folks find my information and experience useful. I'm actually apprenticing a new mechanic right now and am putting together pdf's of my lecture time. I may end up making them all available here. I'm also recording more video and will putting it on my youtube. The mechanic I'm training will actually work in our Seattle factory, so I'll do part of his training online. Next time I'm in Seattle, I'll be making a video of our leather luggage factory. We make some really amazing luggage. Regards, Eric Quote

Members gottaknow Posted April 10, 2015 Members Report Posted April 10, 2015 You're welcome CD. I wish I had more time to help folks. I need a Star Trek transporter to just pop in and take care things. Regards, Eric Quote
Members MarkWorsnop Posted May 17, 2015 Members Report Posted May 17, 2015 gottanow - THANK YOU so very much for the excellent video. I have had my Brother LS2-B837 for several months and have been very frustrating not understanding what the clutch was for or that the button was there to lock the shaft. What a life saver! Thank you. I am still trying to understand the thread tension as the thread jumps off the "pulley" when the arm comes down. Any ideas? I can try and make a video if that will help explain what I am asking. Quote
