Hi Al, Good video. Nice and clear. Just one thing. I noticed you took out the needle thread to start the winding process but did not mention anything about the bobbin thread. I guess in most situations people may not have a bobbin in the machine if they are winding a bobbin because they have run out of thread. But If they do still have it in and it is not empty, I would recommend they also take it out. I recently had to spend several hundred dollars getting my machine fixed because as I was adjusting the speed of a new servo motor, I did not take out the bobbin thread. It created the biggest birds nest and pushed all the gears out of alignment.
DO YOU HAVE A VIDEO OF THREADING THE ARTISAN 4400RB FROM THE SPOOL STAND TO THE NEEDLE.. I'M TRYING TO SEE THE ROUTE OF THE THREAD WHEN THREADING THE MACHINE.
@Al Bane (and company) Thank you for posting this. I build one from a 12" long piece of wood (1 1/2" high by 2 1/4" wide at the top). The supply bobbin is held loosely by a screw midway on the side (the 12" by 1 1/2" side). Its thread passes through the hole in a bobby pin that is screwed to one end of the board (the 1 1/2" by 2 1/4" side). This way the pin can be adjusted sideways as needed. A small brad (nail) between the supply bobbin and the safety pin keeps the thread from trying to jump over the safety pin. On the top side, opposite the safety pin, I mounted an DC motor that holds the take-up bobbin. The speed is controlled by the voltage going to the motor. In my case, the 17V motor is from a old ride-able toy car, and the adapter was set to 4.5 V. No tension plates. It took a couple of runs to get a uniform winding that did not snap the thread at the sewing machine. It's a joy to watch!
Very nice. Now to help you a little. It looks like a lot of black rubber dust where the belt is coming into contact with the bobbin winder base. You need to file off or reposition the base.
You know what's funny? That video has almost 10,000 views. Doesn't seem like very much in the grand scheme of things. The disturbing part is that there are 5 thumbs down. I just reviewed that video again to see what people are objecting to. I don't see anything wrong with the information. Someone commented that there is dust coming off of the belt and building up on the side of the machine. What they fail to recognize is that this was a brand new machine at the time. So, as the belt breaks in and sheds off some dust. So does the little rubber brake on the bobbin winder. I guess I failed to address that in the video. Maybe they're objecting to the videography. We do these with available resources like our cell phones. We don't spend a lot of time editing. We happen to be leathersmiths who want to help people. So, we are not very well versed in video editing. I believe we get the information across. If you like our videos please give them a thumbs up. I don't post these with a bunch of tags trying to promote my channel. I'm not monetizing so that I can make any money or anything like that. I'm just trying to help the local community. I strive to do better as often as possible. I guess you can try to make people happy but you're always going to find someone griping about something.
Keep up the good work man. Your video was helpful, informative and entertaining to be honest (Your daughter is cute). Forget about the dislikes man. Haters gonna hate no matter what you do. I believe you have to treat them as noise. Wish you all the best.
Man, rare to see a channel so sincerely reflect on why you got the negatives. Never mind, be sure and confident this video is great, great useful information without unnecessary fluffy stuff. I’m only unable to give more than one thumbs up!
@Al Bane I see your comment from 2 months ago. As an engineer I am intrigued by the mechanics of sewing. I came here trying to find out how the thread moves from side to side as it winds on the bobbin. Nothing is shifting left and right. Is it just looking for lower ground?
I have a silly question. I purchased a few bobbins but I guess the inside hole of them are not tight enough compare to the machines' original ones. So the bobbins are loose when I slide them to the axle. What is the solution to this? Because I tried every bobbins on the stores and all of them are loose.
Sorry for the late reply. I just saw this today. Too much tension on the thread will force the bobbin to load excessively tight. This will cause two things inconsistent tension in the sewing machine resulting in inconsistent stitch quality. But more importantly it will put more thread on the bobbin itself causing it to expand and change shape so then when you load the bobbin into the machine it generates more friction because it's bigger than its original specification and causes additional stress and tension problems. I hope this answers your question and again sorry for the late reply.
@@polonakadunc9864 are you sure that you are pushing the thread between the two discs until it reaches the center of the bolt? If you aren't seating the thread all the way into the center you won't be developing any tension and the bobbin will wind very loose
Hey Al, I have the Cobra Class 20 machine withe the same type bobbin winder. For some unknown reason the axle spins but the bobbin will not take up thread. What could be causing that? John Gatlin
Super helpful! I am using an industrial sewing machine for the first time. Thank you for this useful and clear video!
Thank you!!! I've finally been able to figure out what my issues were. At last!! A FULL BOBBIN!

This was a great instructional video! It was very clear and helpful.
Thanl uou for the wonderful vedio it helps a lot for me as a begimner❤❤take care your grandson is cute and best regards to your daughter❤❤

Thank you very much for this video. I felt very stupid trying to figure this out.
Thank you for sharing, God bless you and your beautiful family!
Very nice. Now to help you a little. It looks like a lot of black rubber dust where the belt is coming into contact with the bobbin winder base. You need to file off or reposition the base.
Awesome
Could you do a full video on Juki LU 563
OIling, threading, ect.
Thanks
Unfortunately I don't have one of those machines.

Spread the end of the winders shaft with the screwdriver.
That will hold the bobbin on while it spins.
@@albaneforleather Thanks a lot man. I was thinking of doing that, but I wanted to make sure.
What is the best tension on the tension disks? Thanks

@@albaneforleather no worries about late. Thank you very much 💪
Great video!!
Thank you for explanation :) i have problem with thread skipping out of disk. What can i do? Thank you for helping me
This is why we load the thread in the guide through discs and back out through the guide again.
I did this and still is not ok
@@polonakadunc9864 it's possible that you have a bad cone of thread. Have you tried changing it to a different thread?
Yes i have
@@polonakadunc9864 are you sure that you are pushing the thread between the two discs until it reaches the center of the bolt? If you aren't seating the thread all the way into the center you won't be developing any tension and the bobbin will wind very loose
Thank you alot !
I did make the winder too pushing for the belt and it keeps slipping away .. now I know my fault :)
