Members siddiqui2008 Posted December 21, 2019 Author Members Report Posted December 21, 2019 Is the 211G 165 same as 211-A967KB in terms of reverse and big bobbin size ... ? 211-A967KB has reverse and big bobbin size as well. Quote
Members siddiqui2008 Posted December 23, 2019 Author Members Report Posted December 23, 2019 OK I purchased the Singer 211 a1xxxk version for $650 with stand and new servo motor. Sews great but there is loose stitch on the top meaning I have to tighten thread coming out of bobbin. How do I do that for the top loading bigsize 1" bobbin. Are there any instructions on how to do it. Quote
Members dikman Posted December 23, 2019 Members Report Posted December 23, 2019 Could also mean that you have the top tension too high. Quote Machines wot I have - Singer 51W59; Singer 331K4; Seiko STH-8BLD; Pfaff 335; CB4500. Chinese shoe patcher; Singer 201K (old hand crank)
Members siddiqui2008 Posted December 23, 2019 Author Members Report Posted December 23, 2019 It only works when the top tension is very high otherwise I get birds nest at the bottom. I am using thread size 138 both in top and bottom. It also varies what I am stitching, two layers vs 5 layers. Any advice how to easily increase bobbin tension... any articles. Quote
