Slowing a Leather Sewing Machine with pulleys. 

Thanks for taking the mystery out of the pulley system to slow down speed!

Hey buddy, i came across your videos a few days ago, now that im looking for a sewing machine, and now this video to slow it down. I gotta say, great stuff! keep em coming!

Thank you Harry. I slowed my consew 227 following your advice. I just finished setting up today. It sews like a dream.

Really enjoy your videos. Like your attention to detail. I'm a retired Upholster instructor. I have sewn lots of leather for upholstery. Have made tote bags. Your videos. Have encouraged me to take my skills to a different level. Clint from North Carolina. USA

This is one of the most informative and HELPFUL videos I have ever seen...thanks! Between you in England and Mr. Arthur Porter in America, I feel like I am finally understanding what is going on with my machines (-:

That's a really tidy job. Thanks for showing this - I will never do it but loved seeing it done.

After 7 years 😍 its working now 😍 thank you so much mister .

¡Brillante como siempre Harry, saludos desde El Salvador!

Thanks to this video I'll be able to slow down my electri motor. I am building soil sifter/trommel. Many thanks 👍👍👍

Thanks Harry, very helpful, I'm thinking of doing this on my Singer 31-15

This video keeps on giving despite it's age - just finished slowing my Tysew today. From 200rpm to about 60 :) had to tap and die my own pulleys and all!

I have a singer 241-12 and it’s horribly fast very hard to control love your pulley system 👍🏻

That is a great upgrade, thanks for showing it. The most interesting thing to hear was that you couldn't get something that I easily can here in the US. Interesting because very often I have to order parts and ship from the UK as I can not find them state side. Misery loves company (Big Smile).

Thank you for the tutorial!

Great video. Two quick notes:

I just bought a Gemsy walking foot machine that i really need to slow down without spending much more money. So sorry to hear of your health problems. Hope you have recovered.

A very smart man here!

good idea .... its inspiring me. thanks alot.

OMG, this is amazing! Thank you for this video. I’m having a hard time explaining the speed reducer thing to the suppliers of sewing machines in china.. i can really make this dit

To further reduce, you can get a smaller diameter pulley for the motor itself.
