Industrial Sewing Machine Table Retrofit and Complete Setup
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- I acquired a post bed machine, head only, so I needed to put it in a table. The machine's base is 7” by 20 3/8” and the Table that I have has an opening of 7” by 15 1/2”. In this project I enlarge the hole to fit the new machine.
Additionally I add some wood to the two remaining corners to properly support the new machine. I make some custom rubber cushions, update the hinges, install a new servo motor, a different thread stand and a foot pedal for the presser foot lift.

This is amazing work, inspiring and nice to watch.
Just what I needed ! I have servo motor, vintage machine, wood pannel and router, now lets work :)
Thank you sir
Thanks for the video. I just received my first post bed head yesterday, have a blank tabletop already, and legs for it on the way from a local seller. Now having seen this, my mission is clearly outlined!
Thank you for taking the time to post these most excellent videos. I find them extremely informative and superbly produced.
Well done. A true craftsman as always. Thank you for sharing 👍
I love that you added a foot pedal for lifting the presser foot. I just ordered 5 of them so I can do the same thing.
I like both methods, the pedal is dirt simple and so you can be up and running quick and reliable. Most knee lifters are either janky or require removal and proper install to work. The previous installer almost never seems to get it right.
@@AlexanderDyer I'm in process of cutting and routing an old oak dining table with 4 industrial machines on it. I need to find a solution to hold the foot pedals. Your videos have been invaluable while I am trying to figure it all out though. Thanks for doing what you do.
The "auxiliary safety finger" utilized at 5:23 is simple and brilliant.
Yes and my thanks go to Jimmy Diresta. Check him out.
Great tutorial, I learned something new today, thank you for sharing your craftsmanship.
Love the pink floyd style delay bass and your work is amazing
Re: Angle of the belt comment. It is the WRAP angle of the belt that determines its friction and effectiveness ... the verticality of the belt is irrelevant, all things (pulley sizes, belt length) being equal. Alexander is correct.
Great video.
i love it when somebody has enough sense to do things right with skill and pride! great job!
Again. Brilliant.
if you have an old residential sewing machine motor put a small rubber wheel on it, wire it into a cheap ebay speed controller and use it to power your bobbin winder. its much funner to wind bobbins when 100 pounds of sewing machine isn't clanking away.
Thanks to this and other videos I had the confidence to tackle switching out the clutch motor on my Juki DDL-555 with a Servo Motor. I really appreciate you making videos bc w/o them I most likely wouldn't have done the swutch. And boy am I glad I did! Thanks a Million!
Excellent!
Loved the video. All of it. I learned on a 'power' sewing machine. Watching you create a home for your machine is really nostalgic. Now, I'm getting my old Bernina 117K ready to use again after years of not using it. Your machine is unique, being a leather machine. Mine is pretty heavy duty and, will sew leather but my intent is regular sewing. Currently I have no cabinet or table so watched your vid for any help I can get. Thanks for posting.
I am not 100% sure but I will bet that you can get any old fold down sewing machine cabinet and your machine would fit. Those cabinets from the 40's-70's were all the same style in how they hold a machine so I would encourage you to check into that. You can probably find one local on craigslist for cheap and you could try before you buy. Good Luck.
Cyanoacrylate glue is great mending all types of breaks ;) . This a great video. The table re-work drew me to watch but the mounting of the servo was icing on the cake.
Ha, yeah, its good stuff. 👍
I love watching your videos.
That was Badass
Great video. I liked the superglue skin repair.
You are paying close attention.
You’re a wizard of so many talents. Excellent job!
I need one! Gotta figure out how to make one without a sheet metal brake, and a drill press….without scorching any skin!
You're good.
Turned out real nice.
Glad you like it, I think I will get a great deal of good use from it.
Great video as always. I will be doing the same to a Consew 225 in a couple of and this helped.
Very cool - I've not seen any projects with this machine... I have to have a closer look... :)
Thanks for your reply, I have learned alot from your videos, I manufacture awnings and I also have the Consew 206 RB Sewing Machines, I have a Singer 311 Double Needle Chain Stitch Sewing Machine that I want to sell , I use a Sinclair Wedge Welder to weld seams together for the Awnings I make so I don't need the chain stitch machine, I think it's a 1948 model, I have the original owners manual for this machine
Fabric Welder, Cool! I'm not familiar with the double needle but it sounds cool too.
F___ing Bad ass ...that's the way to roll !!
Turned out real nice. Inspiring and inspirational video.
It has been a great setup for me. Very nice to use.
Enjoyed this video you have great skills!
Well done, always look forward to your videos
Thanks, I am honored.
fantastic video! i have to make a whole new table top for my industrial Nakajima Walking Foot. those old tables are notorious for sagging in the center under the weight of those machine heads!
Yeah, particle board does that. The plywood tops are better.
Really nice job. Have a nice weekend.
Thank you, you too.
perfect
svaka cast za majstorstvo majstore pozzz....
Hvala ti
You are a legend.
Whoa! Let's not get carried away. 😄 Ha Ha. I do appreciate the sentiment.
great video! best content🎯 thanke you
Your are too kind.
Great video. Background noise not needed. Where did you source hinges. I have a Chandler CM 440R which needs hinges. Thanks.
Asosmbroso
So nice " awesome "
Thank you "nice"
Hey Alex, thanks for another great video. I have been tempted to rework a top, but I am not much of a wood guy and don't have the tools. I have been know to buy junker machines to get a decent top. Happy Day .. Lee In Florida
That is a very good strategy Lee.
Hi Nice videos, I have a 754 Consew, and I can't get it too use booth needles with out braking the thread. I bought reverse twist and that seem the work but the right needle must be out of time... spent lots of hours try to figer it out. I use it as a single needle now. when I bought the machine it had very low hours. it a great machine it just needs someone that knows how to fix it. you want to trade ?
Thanks for the video I just bought a used machine similar to what yours look like except I have a roller foot. Mine doesn't have the model info on it. What model is your machine?
Consew 229
I need help to adjust the feeds on a 281-22 singer feeds coming out uneven
Uneven stitch lengths?
Great video, I love recycling stuff. Where do you get that style of hinge & would they fit my 111W154?
I think Universal Sewing carries them, maybe eBay.
Curious as to where you got the hinges for the new/old machine?
Here is a set amzn.to/2xrpj8p
@@AlexanderDyer Awesome thanks for your time. Just wish I had the Consew 206rb :), your vid makes it the 1!, can't find one near me (AR)
Awesome work. But the belt angle (or motor pulley position) is a bit wrong. It is too vertical.
I disagree. Thank you.
I like your videos. I just picked up my first industrial machines, a Singer 111W155 and a Singer 112G139. I have a question, I only have one motor and table and the 111W155 doesn't have any hinges. I am going to make the hole to (the table top only has a belt slot so I can router in what I need) fit the longer 112 machine and the 111 with the addition of a filler plate to compensate for it's shorter overall length. I would like to upgrade to the new style hinges like you used but I am unclear how they attach to the machine. Would you be able to provide any insight on this?
When completed I'll be making seat covers for my vintage snowmobile and recovering my pontoon seats along with making a new cover.
A simple round pin is held in the machine head by a set screw usually. Be sure and check your machines though, I have had some older machines that had a different style where the hinges were screwed to the base of the machine with a couple of screws and so would be more difficult to convert.
Thanks for the advice. As luck would have it each machine is different. I think I can fab a bracket to the 112G139 (old screwed in place brackets) and weld the new style hinges to the bracket. This would allow me to space my hinges the same on both machines since they aren't even close. Do the hinges help hold the machine to the table to prevent it form rising up when the knee lift is used? One more thing, as I am an amateur sewer I'm thinking about upgrading to a servo motor. Do you have any that you prefer over others? The Consew servo with the dial control is about $100, a Sailrite is about $200. I'm assuming they are all made in China? Thanks again for the great videos.
The hinges only engage the table when the machine is rocked back. The machine head sets on four cushions at each corner when upright. I show a couple of servo motors I like in this video and there are links in the description. ruclips.net/video/lavkvsU5ltk/видео.html
Thank you!
Hey Alexander how do you like your Post Bed Machine ? I have one that I'm going to get up and running also I enjoy your videos keep up the good work, HAVE A SAFE WEEKEND !
I have a two needle that I bought with every intention of selling but after using it a couple of times I couldn't imagine not having it and so this single needle will so handy for getting in tight places or putting patches on sleeves for example. Post bed machine is the best kept secret in town.
Impressive video! Sexy too ;) I have an old Wilcox&Gibbs industrial that i love and a brother with new motor but the head needs work. i'm trying to find if I can connect a rolling foot to the Wilcox & Gibbs but it doesn't look like the plate is interchangeable??? Do you have any suggestions?
Call www.hendersonsewing.com They can help you find that if is available.
thanks :)
where did you get the hinges?
I have a lot of spare parts. You could try www.hendersonsewing.com
Alexander Dyer what are the differences between old and new style hinges other than shape?
Really good video but hated the repetitive sound effects, not music, and had to mute it, very useful video though
Thank goodness for mute. Music tends to be very subjective, I am learning.
Meus parabéns.
Obrigado
Feels like people are missing the point of the video (or perhaps _I_ am missing it)... I took this to be almost an artistic video; it's not necessarily meant as a how-to, so much as how your brain works. People asking logistics questions or commenting upon the music, etc., seem to be missing the point. Again, I could be the one in the wrong here.
These videos are different things to different people and that is ok. If you find it artistic, insightful or entertaining then I am over the moon. Thanks for your comments.
Apologies for making assumptions. Thanks for the beautiful video!
So I’m going to need some tools…
... and so it begins ...
what music is this? i love it.
Yes it is good. The music credits are in the description, friend.
Reminds me of One of these days by Pink Floyd
8:27 🤦
you forgot to put the pelvis back, otherwise your pants will receive tastes of lubricating oil
I have a drip pan and I promise to get it installed so that I do not get oil on my pants.
