Members brmax Posted October 8, 2018 Members Report Posted October 8, 2018 I would have to study the video again, as I thought I seen a shadow of the spring so initialy thought this was the double blip. Its good to hear your adjustment made a change for the good. Have a good day Floyd Quote

Your check spring does not move at all when the thread wraps around the hook now? What adjustments did you make to the tension unit? Yea for sure. I experimented with various tension combinations between the upper tension disks/spring along with the bobbin case spring making sure that with each combination my knots were still in he middle of the material. I'm not exactly sure why this alleviated the jerk of the check spring to be honest but it did go away at the time of experimentation. I'm starting to wonder if the thickness of material in relation to the needle size could have something to do with it too - perhaps less needle hole space for the knot to be pulled in and inside of the material (requiring more upper tension) would cause a jerk before the knot finally gets pulled through the small needle hole and seats properly? (side note: bought this aftermarket table made by Phillocraft which Is super solid. Guess I like it a lot because I learned on a pedestal machine.) Edited October 9, 2018 by HardenGoods Quote
