Nevertheless, it's a good video of how not to sew something. Edited October 7, 2016 by dikman Quote Machines wot I have - Singer 51W59; Singer 331K4; Seiko STH-8BLD; Pfaff 335; CB4500.

mikesc Posted October 8, 2016 Report Posted October 8, 2016 (edited) .....Um....Even though I've seen some of his videos before..each time a few minutes that I'll never get back, lost to the twilight zone of tacky video effects and surreal background tv soundtracks, but that.. That was traumatic.. like a sewing equivalent of a 20 car wreck on the freeway, bits of mangled and mauled dead cow all over the place, and one of those horrible, nasty sailwrongs complicit in the butchery..and "manly scissors" ( yes..I watched part two, in case it turned out to be a joke..it didn't )..felt like a sewing equivalent of the shower scene from psycho.. Think I'm going to have drink and lie down for a while and try to think happy thoughts.. Edited October 8, 2016 by mikesc Quote "Don't you know that women are the only works of Art" ..

Members Yetibelle Posted October 8, 2016 Members Report Posted October 8, 2016 Yeah the first time I saw that I thought. This must be a prank....how can Salerite leave that up there? Plus who would sew like this, for real? I was tearing-up it was absurd. I have a 221 featherweight that sews leather better than that. Still he makes a great effort, if you read the YouTube comments, he follows up - he will use a better machine for leather next time. Good idea... Quote One day I hope to learn how to sew.....

RockyAussie Posted October 8, 2016 Report Posted October 8, 2016 Man, that just keeps you on the edge of your seat. The suspense and the tension just keep building but that sewing machine held together and just kept in going. The ventilated leather trick was a bonus throw in and the magnetic guide thing, well what can I say!!!. I think he could have done even better if his front foot was an open one and he could see a little better when he reversed stitched, but he could perhaps improve on his attention to detail a bit. It's great when people like Vince go to such efforts to share their knowledge and in such detail. Like Mikesc above said, Im ready for my lie down now as I already had my drink.
