Your boat’s enclosure can get hot and stuffy. Installing a roll-up window is a smart way to bring cooling airflow and much-needed air circulation into your enclosure. In this how-to video, we’ll show you how to install and sew a curved zipper into window material. And we have some useful tips and tricks on how to draw the perfect curve, how to bend and shape bias binding, and how to bend and sew a coil zipper around the curve of the window.

I've been binge watching your videos in an effort to have some knowledge to replace the canvas on my popup camper. I'm right down the road in Fort Wayne so if thats a video you'd like to make and need a demo camper I'd be happy to discuss it.

@davidh7268 2 года назад

Great Instructional video. I have the LSZ1 machine and spending a lot of time learning. I recently replaced the isinglass roll up window zipper using your instructions. The project turned out well on my 44 foot Island Packet Sailboat. Thanks for tips and video.

@SailriteDIY 2 года назад

Glad your window curtain for your sailboat came out great. Thank for your kind comments and buying the Sailrite Ultrafeed Sewing Machine.

@sxsboy2253 3 года назад

Wonderful information and it couldn’t be more timely as I’m getting ready to replace the windows in my 30 year old Coleman pop top. My Sailrite order should be arriving this week sometime and now I’m ready to go.

@SailriteDIY 3 года назад

Sounds great! Let us know if you have any questions.

@AgoodguylocknkeyDaveLocksmith 3 года назад

Got to see this..

@TERMIN8TOR99 2 года назад

I did this for the 1st time on old hardened glass and I cut the stitching holding the zipper teeth. I've since replaced glass and installed zipper, was much easier to cut.

@mickemusik 3 года назад

I like your videos and all your info you'r sharing. I am working with sewing boat covers in Sweden. And I prefer to have some canvas between the zipper and the window. Most if the fabricators do the same thing here in the Nordic countries.

@SailriteDIY 3 года назад

We are glad you like them! Good luck with the boat cover.

@jbreid8129 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for this informative video. I’d like to install a curved zipper into a screen. I assume the procedure would be the same as with a vinyl window? I’ve never sewn screen material before so I’m a little nervous!

@rahalati 2 года назад

Excellent video, thanks for sharing. May I ask what is the importance of adding the binding tape, is it just decorative something else?

@kirstylockwood7421 3 года назад

A great video, thank you. So neat! I'm curious about whether the basting tape gums up the needle at all?

@SailriteDIY 3 года назад

Basting tapes have a tendency to leave a gum residue on the needle when sewing lighter fabrics, but not so much when sewing heavier fabric assemblies. Heavy fabric assemblies have a tendency to clean then needle as it exits and enters the fabric. Although a well-adjusted machine should not be affected, if it does run the needle through a bar of Ivory soap to help prevent build-up or use a cotton swab with rubbing alcohol to keep the needle clean.

@mickywiese1990 Месяц назад

What do you use inside of the weights you have? I have thought about making myself some, but worried about using sand for obvious reasons? Your Video's are awesome by the way!

@SailriteDIY 29 дней назад

We used sand and it has not leaked out for well over 5 years since made and I use them almost daily. Here is the link to make them: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2h4imUXwrHI.html
