Granny Wheels
Израиль
Добавлен 13 сен 2021
If you like working with leather but do not have a budget or space for big and heavy machines, or maybe you are just a beginner or a hobbyist, then Granny Wheels is a good place for you to start. Because we, just like you, are in the same situation. Except for a $250 electric sewing machine (that we also figured out how to operate manually - see our invention - the Granny Wheel), we do everything by hand. It's not that we are off grid and do not have electricity. On the contrary, we live in the middle of a busy city. It's just that we like it small and cozy, you know...like in the old days. You can be inside the grid with an off grid mentality. And besides, doing things by hand is always more fun. So join us as we explore different tools and techniques for fashioning leather products like bracelets, belts, dog collars, bags and much more. We hope you learn a lot from our videos and most importantly - enjoy !

Just purchased 4432. I'm new to leatherworking and I received my sewing machine today. I am now reading online people saying it's not good enough for leather and it's gonna struggle etc. Should I return it? I had read previously that it can handle leather but all these comments are putting me off
Thank you very helpful 👍🏾
do you 3d print some of your parts for the belts
you are very good teacher
Thank u very much for all your videos. Your are a great leather masterman!!
My Singer HD gets all gummed up with #69 Nylon Bonded thread, does yours feed normally?
You just remind me how I customise my Toyota 2001- Granny wheel- you say? Pure Trnoružica. It was a wooden pencil I attached on a Toyota- my boyfriend at that time try to patent a South American drum as his invention- got rejected..Now I see you paraphrasing that famous Mahatma Gandhi photos.
I love table at your terace- does Ivana Knoll helps you round studio?
My dad invented the wooden Golf Lezaj kotaca, back in 91
where did you buy that 3D model projection device, manager? Can you make a leather magnifier case - for me?
I like your wheel.After 4 years I realise I customise my Heavy Duty on day I bought it (I damaged bobbin case from oreginal packing, as I was not familiar how to ajust thread tension so I unscrewed those green waxed screws from the original bobin case- could not screw it back- was lockdown, and I was short with money) I took bobbin case from my old Brother, and placed it in Singer- did work perfect- I could sew a bulletproof vest with my singer. Once time went off- on the singer- Im facing weird cell behind Singer, that convinced me I was unable to sew for 4 years, cuz is inposible- you play a part. What do you think about who customises 4411 in cooperation with 4423?
Only custom-made adjustment I ever bought when I started to work with lots of tery fabric- was the top stitch upper running foot- which was labelled original singer - what a WASTE OF MONEY. Adjustment broke on day 2.
all Internet all e bay is suddenly all about Singer Heavy Duty - in the last 24 hours there are more than 10 4423 Heavy duties on auction- what is this - some repair shop- sale? Bobin Case replacement University organised by Currys?
Awesome videos! Awesome channel! I recently purchased a new HD44S & a used HD4423! This channel is just what me and my machines need! Bingeing & learning! Thanks Rani!
Will this work on sergers also?
Best sewing video for my purposes. Answered many of my questions.
Excellent explanation. Answering many questions I had going through my mind whilst looking for a heavy duty machine. Great stuff.
The Singer is a pile of rubbish, the only thing heavy about it is when used as a paper weight. Let’s be honest here if you try and sew anything heavy on it you will continue to knock the bobbin timing off! I know this from personal experience, in my opinion I’d literally save the money and buy a Juki or Juke walking foot for less money than the sailrite. The sailrite is also very restricted in the foot clearance, and it’s expensive compared to the Juke or Juki, the only thing going for it is the size compared to others etc. it’s just the price that makes me comment as such. The sailrite is super loud too. But thanks for the. Idea nonetheless the less.
Thanks.
Where did you source that adjustable guide ont he pressser foot?
And the difference in price is $1,000.
The sailrite is not sold in Canada I think??
Hi if you're still reading / replying to these comments then would you mind telling me which company you used to make the dies? I've got a few that I need making and looking for a cost effective supplier. Thanks! :)
I have been sewing for about 50 years and tha is the most dangerous thing that I have ver seen someone put on a sewing mcahine ! That is dangerous for so many reasons.
This slowed my machine down really well, thankyou, using a crimper was a first though, that was insanity inducing, probably an 'easy when you know how, sort of thing, drove me nuts! Anyway, if you felt your ears burning, it was possibly due to me cursing you for breaking my machine, ...until I changed the plug fuse😂
Thank you for this demonstration, also having a 4411, I would like to know the type of thread and needle that you use in this video and possibly their reference. otherwise, how to configure the thread tension in case of thick leather.
This is great. This feature was built into my Sailrite industrial machine and I love sewing slowly. Now I can upgrade my basic Janome machine as well. Thank you.
Thank you very much! May I know how to determine the sizes of needles for different thickness materials?
no need for all this. just use variable current controller to plug machine in.
Hi, do you have a video or any recommendation on how to do this?
Do you know if the SHD machine can sew Sunbrella/Pfifertex material?
Would this singer model be ok for sewing polypropylene webbing?
I find it relaxing to listen to your explanations while I do other projects
The problem with this method is you are undervolting it and thus it cannot do thick fabric on low speed. The solution would be to have a motor that has less rng with a gear reduction method of some sort with full throttle and voltage.
which one is the best for silicone/leather please ? it's not always clear which material is tested. thank you
Can I purchase a peed controller and plug the sewing machine into it to lower the speed using the out controller?
I have some olderamos and all of them seem to have a hard time turning the sewing machine.The motor sounds like it's in a strain
I don't seem to be hearing the motor strain.When it's in slow motcan you explain this please
I just love all of your tutorials! I just ordered a 4423 machine for the little bit of leather work that I do. I would love to see a tutorial on where you oil your machine. I can’t find any good tutorials on where these machines are oiled.
Great video! Bless your heart
I purchased the Granny Wheel for my Singer Heavy Duty and added the plastic handle from the Sailrite Speed Reduction Wheel that I wasn't using to one of the wood balls. It is perfect!
Is the singer 4432 is better than the 4423? Im trying to get one according to amazon 4423 is more popular. Which singer model would you recommend good sir? I mainly use it to hem my denim jeans.
La única diferencia entre ellas es la cantidad de puntadas. Yo prefiero la 4423. Pagar por ma's puntadas au'n cuando no las vamos ha usar.. .
Thank you so much!
Your background music is not needed
Will there sell machine handle on 19 needle? I'm so canvas sail ⛵️ sailboat You can let me know. Thank you. Where'd you get to switch to slow the motor down? I like that😊
Thanks for sharing your experience, i agree the heavy tread gives the items a magical look. The symmetry of the machine stitch is (IMO ) desirable and thanks to your explanation an achievable goal . Good luck .
Thank you for this video. The info here answered a lot of the questions I had about the Singer heavy duty and the difference between the Singer and the much bigger industrial machines. Thank you.
Very clever. KISS.
I saw that Schmetz makes a 120/90 needle that works with T90 thread that will fit a Singer. I have a bunch of V92 thread that I have used on my Singer 6680 Heavy Duty with a Jeans needle with ok results. If the 120/90 needle fits my machine shouldn't I theoretically be able to use the V92 thread, if you are saying what limits you to V69 is the needle size of 110/18? I would really like to use the thread I have on hand. I learned more in your video than anything I have seen to date. Thanks for sharing! ps...I have a Granny Wheel on the way, too!
I put your hand wheel in my Amazon "things to buy" list. 🙂
You gotta clamp that stuff .
well done. cheers
