    I'd really like to see a longer conversation on this. Edge binding is a surprisingly difficult topic to really get into as most content is either focused on domestic machines or is completely incomprehensible because it's just someone using a machine--with no comment or context--so it's hard to get any idea of how to start. I think a couple starting points I'd like to see would be a) recommendations on good types of attachments and common machines they attach to (like something that would attach to a JUKI 1541 or something similar), b) techniques for tricky edges (like the curve for a backpack strap), and c) just going into to basic usage on a cylinder bed machine.

    Cool machine, buddy.
    I bet (or wonder) how long the air-lift might work from a air-tank, like the one's Harbor Freight sells, like the tow truck drivers carry.
    I have worked with air-capable machines myself and often wondered/wanted to try it for kicks.

    • @thejasonofalltrades
      @thejasonofalltrades  3 года назад +1

      Thanks JP!
      The air system doesn't seem to demand a lot of air, so a tank would probably last a while, but you still have to fill the tank. A small compressor is fine for one user. A shop I used to work for that used pneumatics for all of the machines had one big compressor, and when it failed, none of the lifts worked. I think the pneumatic lift is neat, and has appeal for specific applications, but other than sounded cool in videos it isn't particularly useful to me. The question is when I'll get frustrated enough by it to remove it 😁

    Thanks for the video, Jason. A local sewing shop once tried to sell me a Yamata, which was about half the price of a comparable Juki. I was unfamiliar with the brand and did not want to commit. However, I would be curious to know how your Yamata holds up over time. Thanks again, KB.

    After having just bought a walkingfoot machine, I have thought of getting a binding attachment, as screwing around with the clips is annoying. Still though, I don't think most people can rationalize buying an entire machine for just binding, unless they are at a skill level you are at.

    • @donniemacneil3804

      Even without the binding attachment the cylinder arm can be quite handy for some stitches towards the end of the assembly

    • @thejasonofalltrades
      @thejasonofalltrades  3 года назад

      I totally agree, spending this kind of money (even if you get a much better deal than I did) for one purpose is a pretty big luxury for a hobbyist. Part of my point (probably not expressed well) is to set realistic expectations for someone in a situation like yours; "I have a walking-foot machine and a binding attachment, why is this still difficult?" One can definitely bind on a flatbed machine, the cylinder arm just makes it a lot easier.
      As Donnie commented, a cylinder arm can be useful in other ways, too. Unfortunately, they aren't as easily found for attractive prices on the used market.

      @thejasonofalltrades  3 года назад

      Hi Steve!
      I actually just finished a project binding 12 painted canvases using my Sailrite Ultrafeed LSZ-1 and Sailrite's swing-away binding attachment. For flat items like the painted canvases, it works great! My one caution about the swing-way binder is that you have to make sure it doesn't get pushed away from the work. I usually keep my thumb on it keeping it fully pressed forward.
      For binding bags, etc., a right-angle binder is better, and a cylinder-arm machine is better still. But the Sailrite binder is a good-quality piece and works well.
      I hope that helps! Thanks for watching!

      Hi!
      I unfortunately don't know the origin of my folder. There are some high end folder makers (Fernando's attachments, Atlanta Attachments and Tennessee Attachments are names I know but I have not had any personal experience with), but you might not be ready to spend that kind of money. I suggest a right-angle binding attachment, wherever you get it. I'd probably just start with something from eBay or Amazon.
      I don't know what you are binding, but for bags, I REALLY prefer Mil-spec 4088 webbing over grosgrain. There are way too many varieties of grosgrain and webbings for me to know which are the best, but I've used commercial grosgrain and mil-spec 5038 type 3 grosgrain, and 4088 goes around curves much nicer and generally has a softer, higher-end feel to me. I really wish I could find a version of it in non-military colors.
      If you haven't tried 4088, I would suggest at least trying some before you invest in a lot of grosgrain, you may find you prefer it, too.
      Good luck!

    Do you think it works to work on heavy leather? leather bags, backpacks etc?

    • @thejasonofalltrades
      @thejasonofalltrades  17 дней назад

      Hi!
      I'm sorry for taking so long to reply!
      This machine is fine for leather that you might use for bags and backpacks. I personally would not refer to that as "heavy" leather; I would use that description for horse harnesses, holsters, knife sheaths, etc. This machine would not be ideal for heavy leathers (using my definition). However, when I worked for a manufacturer of leather bags (backpacks and duffles), we used very similar machines to this one.

      Hi!
      I am not a sewing machine mechanic, so take anything I say with a grain of salt.
      If that happened to my machine, I would carefully inspect the mechanism for anything loose. There is an adjustment wingnut on the back to adjust the walking-foot lift height; I would carefully check that and everything it is attached to. Take the cover off the end of the machine and with the power off, rotate the machine by hand, looking for anything loose, hanging up, etc.
      My guess is it will turn out to be a minor adjustment, but if it isn't apparent to you, you may have to find a qualified sewing machine mechanic in your area, which could be a challenge.
      Sorry I don't have better information, I hope that helps! Good luck!

    • @thejasonofalltrades
      @thejasonofalltrades  8 месяцев назад

      Hi!
      Yes, you can do regular sewing by removing the binding folder and using a flat cover plate. This machine is suitable for sewing leather up to a point, but it is not a leather working machine specifically. The leather shop I used to work for used this style of machine quite a bit, but we primarily made bags, using thinner, softer leathers, as opposed to the thick, heavy leather one might use for boots, old west-style gunbelts, horse tack, etc.

      They don't see to stock them, and the lead time might be an issue. I would recommend that you contact them to figure out which package would work for your application.
      I imagine it's possible to buy the component parts to cobble something together, but I have no experience with pneumatics so it might be harder to do than I imagine.

    What is binding? What is it different from the standard cylinder arm?

    • @thejasonofalltrades
      @thejasonofalltrades  10 месяцев назад

      Hi!
      Binding, or edge binding, is accomplished by sewing a strip of material that is folded over the "raw edge" of a sewn assembly. It is a way of finishing and protecting the edge, which can also be accomplished by a double-fold hem, French seam or other methods. Because it adds two more layers of fabric, binding can also add structure and strength to the assembly (depending upon the binding material used).
      This machine is a standard cylinder arm machine, but it is equipped with a binding folder. The folder can be removed and the machine can be used to sew assemblies together as well. I rarely do this, only when I need to reach a tight spot that is difficult to reach with a flatbed machine.
      I hope that helps, thanks for watching!

    Regarding the pneumatic foot lift, can u convert back to a conventional knee lift fairly easily? I'm going to pickup a Brother LS2-B837 tomorrow and it looks to have a pneumatic knee lift. I have a small compressor, so that's not a problem, but I thought it may be more practical to having a conventional push knee lift. Other than the cool factor is there any overwhelming reason to keep it on a machine?

    • @thejasonofalltrades
      @thejasonofalltrades  3 года назад

      Mine came with a foot pedal (instead of a knee lever, but same thing) and it is a pretty easy change to make.
      The pneumatic is really fast, and maybe requires less coordination than having a separate pedal (or knee lever). If your boss is in earshot, the pneumatic can make it sound like you're working really hard lol.
      I haven't been sufficiently motivated to pull this one off yet, but I definitely wouldn't buy a pneumatic system for my purposes. Since your machine came with one, I say try it and see if you like it. There are reasons shops all over the world use them, I suppose, but whether those reasons translate to hobbyists or cottage shops is the question.
      Let me know what you think!

    • @thejasonofalltrades
      @thejasonofalltrades  2 года назад

      Hi Amy,
      You can find binding attachments on Amazon and eBay, and probably any number of online sewing retailers. If you're using a household machine, there are generic ones that attach to the two screw holes that are present in the bed of most machines.
      It gets complicated for industrials, because they often use a needle plate that is made to use with the binder, so you need to buy a set-up for your specific machine. Depending on what you're doing, it can be challenging to find a cheap solution, and you may have to combine parts of multiple packages to get what you want.
      Atlanta Attachment Company and Tennessee Attachment Company are two sources I have heard of and looked into, but they produce very expensive, high quality attachments intended for use in factories and other industrial applications. They can probably make any attachment for any machine, but the cost might be prohibitive for a hobbyist.
      If you let me know what kind of binder you're looking for, and for what machine, I might have better information. If you're looking for a more generic option, I've had good results from the 1" swing-away binding set-up available from Sailrite.
      Good luck, and thanks for watching!

    • @thejasonofalltrades
      @thejasonofalltrades  2 года назад +1

      The air compressor is needed in this particular set-up because of the air-operated foot lifter. The machine was originally equipped with a foot pedal to lift the presser foot, and still also has the lever on the back of the machine.
      Air operated (or pneumatic) presser foot lifters are fast, but unless you have a specific reason for needing one, I wouldn't recommend adding one to a machine. A knee lever or foot pedal are more user friendly and simple, and don't require a noisy air compressor as this set-up does.
      This particular machine came out of a shop that uses pneumatic lifts on all of their machines. I left it on partly just to demonstrate in a video, and partly because it can be very fast. At some point I will probably switch it back to the original foot pedal set-up.
      I hope that helps, thanks for watching!
