What is an industrial blind hemmer (blind hemming machine) and how to use it.

  • Today on my sewing vlog I'm reviewing my industrial blind hemmer (blind stitch or flat felling machine) Rittershausen Success BL06.
    It's a single operation machine so it does what it says on the tin: blind hemming. But it does it very well and efficiently. It works equally well of jersey/knit fabric and woven fabric. It's super fast but not very complicated. In theory it is an industrial portable machine, but in practice it's really heavy and I have problems lifting it.
    You need special needles for it and you might want to use special thread (but it's not necessary). The threading is easy and all the maintenance is just cleaning and oiling the machine (to be done frequently).

    Watching again as I have to blind hem sleeves that are too long on a winter coat. I just noticed we have the same little lamp! Epic! Thanks so much for all you do for us.

    Because of you, I just ordered the Reliable blind hemmer. I tried to get this one, but couldn’t from USA. I’m a new sewing, and wish to work on curtains and mainly hemming my pants ;)

      I was quite intimidated when I got it because it is so fast, but it's actually a really simple to operate machine 😊 and it's so satisfying to hem something big perfectly in minutes 😊 have fun with your hemming (it can get addictive 😄)

      @mariav.4832 4 года назад

      @@GingerheadCo Thank you! ☺ Think the addiction will be there soon😊 What I love about it, it's really easy to use. Like you said and you only need one spool of thread. Changing is done in no time. Top! A little more work with the cover lock.. 😥 The only thing I will have to practice a little bit is adjusting the blind seam correctly. To make your blind hem as invisible as possible. This will come ...😉 The speed is indeed quite imitating in the beginning.. So happy with my new toy!🤗

    I didn’t know you could get a machine like that! what a lovely little thing 🤩 I’m super lazy and I never blind hem anything! It’s standard machine hem all the way for me 🙈🤣 or at least unless I can be bothered to hand sew! (Which is very rare for me) x

    • @GingerheadCo
      @GingerheadCo  4 года назад +2

      I was considering using very thick topstitching thread but decided against it, because the truth is: you can't see the hem in real life so I'd just be showing the stitch formation (and the video is already very 'niche' 🤣🤣🤣 I am the only person I know who watches this sort of content 😉) but if you look very very very closely, you can see the needle punched dots 🤣 they disappear after you've ironed the hem 😁 x

    I have a really old Colombia Union Blind stitch machine that runs at 3000 stitches per minute. Its huge and I'm not sure how to put it all back together after taking it apart to bring it home. Lol but between the manual I found online and this, it was helpful. I'm hopeful I will figure it all out.

    I am grateful for your video. I already have a Singer industrial sewing machine... that I was intimidated by, but still want to master. Now I have been blessed with a blind hemmer too. My husband thinks that the motor on my sewing machine should be able to work well to power the blind hemmer too. Thus I could simply lift the sewing machine out of the cabinet and swap in the blind hemmer when it was needed. This could save on space. the RPM speed is nearly equivalent, 1730 on the sewing machine and 1725 on the hemmer. The blind hemmer has 1/3 horse power and the sewing machine is 1/2. Would this have benefits for thicker materials? any drawbacks in this idea?

    Please please i hope you can help me. I am willing to buy something like this but i cant seem to find if it can do what i want. I make fleece pads with have multiple layers and your meant to turn it inside out and 🤬 hand blind stitch. Its impossible the fleece stretch’s after turning out and its impossible to fold in and flatten and i cant hand stitch for the life of me. I have bursitis and carpel tunnel in both hands. When i try it always breaks in the wash because these liners get washed alot. I want a way to blind stitch the last parts of a seam that can not be turn inside out anymore once its turned in (like a cushion that will never open again or a comforter that washed as is not open up to wash). Can this machine do it please say yes please

    Have you had any problems with the belt under the pulley? What happens when you turn the pulley or hand wheel the wrong way?

    • @GingerheadCo
      @GingerheadCo  3 года назад

      I've never had any problems with it, if you turn the hand wheel the wrong way once it will probably not do much damage, but I wouldn't do it, you might damage the motor and that's very costly to replace.
