      I watched the video twice after reading this comment. "vinyl" Anyways I just purchased lx3817 but I'm second guessing myself. Did I make the right purchase or did I cheap out. I'm a guy who is trying to sew a zipper to a 20oz vinyl tarp. Can the lx3817 handle 18mm vinyl or should I make a return for a SINGER Heavy Duty 44S? Any suggestions would be much appreciated

    Wow.. I cannot believe I am actually putting the thread in my sewing machine!! 😮 The whole idea was just SO scary and intimidating! But after watching this a few times to actually understand what you were doing I have it figured out! Now I have to make the bobbin bottom thread. But yeah, I wanted to conquer the "top" harder part first - So I understood where the thread goes in all of that "zig-zagging"! I wonder why the thread takes such a complicated route??? 🤔 I have no idea.
    Never used a sewing machine in my whole life so this threading stuff seems so super complicated! I guess its not once you know where the thread goes... But I have projects I want to sew!
