There are many triple feed sewing machines that are very good at what they do, I have included several in this video but of course there are others and I may or may not have listed your favorite. This Juki DNU-1541 strikes a balance of excellence, features, cost, parts and availability. Also of note is the high quality documentation available for this series of machines. I have provided a link for the manual below and also check out my Amazon lists of recommended items that I use.

@douglasthompson2740 4 года назад

I have a Jukki 1540 (I think. I bought mine new about ten years ago. Now you show a 1541 so I will have to double check next time i am in the shop). Mine has a reducer on it and while I really like it doing boat canvas, insulated denim coveralls etc. I find the arm really should be longer to better take advantage of the machines capabilities. My biggest gripe with it is the bobbin replacement. The Japanese must have really small fingers but my meathooks won't work in that little space! I have to do it from underneath as you show only I use a large 'L' shaped table so to get under it I have to get up and go around the twelve feet of table to insert the bobbin from the far side where I have a lighter outfeed table that I can move first. I have never been able to start a stitch with any of my machines without holding the threads down. Always learn something new. I didn't know you could fill the bobbins while working. Of course I have a couple of dozen that I fill at one time so I haven't needed that feature. Nice to know though. I did buy a full manual when I bought mine and it is pretty good not like the Chinglish we are now subjected to. Good video. Doug

@AlexanderDyer 2 года назад

Speed is a function of the motor. Clutch motors tend to be very fast, that is how 'industry' likes their sewing; time is money. By changing out to a servo motor you can completely change the characteristic and behavior of any given machine. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lavkvsU5ltk.html

@biketracks 4 года назад

Hi Alexander, Congrats on the videos man! They are really informative, to the point and well made! Can you make a video explaining some of the basics behind two very similar sewing machines: an old proven one and a new model from the same brand... let's say Durkopp Adler 869 and the old Durkopp Adler 269 cylinder or what ever you feel it's similar in order to be compared in the same sense. To be honest I love the old ones, how they look in the workshop, but I'm willing to spend more on a really modern one if there really is a significant advantage on sewing quality and control of the layers etc. I'm not interested in electronic gadgets attached like needle positioning and other automatic sewing stuff, I love the pedal and flywheel. So, I guess my questions is: is there a breakthrough in sewing quality on the new ones or just the same stuff packed in a new cover and sold at a higher price? I hope it makes sense :)

True workhorse. Had mine for a few years; I personally think it's the best Upholstery grade Walking foot on the market. Although if I could do it all again I'd probably go for the 1508. My 1541 had the knob to adjust the Foot height (as seen on the 1541-7's) as well as the actual tension assembly from the 1508; but not all of the 1541's have that. It appears only the later model ones have both of these. The earlier 1541s have Tension assemblies that feature only one pretensioner which locks the user in at #69-#138 thread. I've gone as high as #277 on mine comfortably with a Sz24-25 needle. 1508 has the U-Bobbin also, which is noticeably bigger in person.

I have an old industrial juki LH515 which wasn’t stitching well. My husband and I spent hours threading and rethreading the machine and changing the tension but it still wouldn’t work well. As you would know, this is a twin needle machine so there are two bobbin cases. Well we cleaned one of them but forgot about the other. After cleaning the second bobbin case, the machine is now stitching beautifully. I am not selling it. My question is, how often do we have to change the oil? I have three sewing machines so I don’t use the juki often.

Hey, I have the 2750pro and a couple Juki LU562 flatbeds. Honestly, I hardly ever use the table attachment, I mostly use the cylinder arm when necessary and mostly use the flatbeds, I find them easier to manage the material during sewing. Hope this helps! Cheers!

Nice video

@SteveSnowman 3 года назад

Boy, @Alexander Dyer. I noticed that you were able to adjust the stitch length (direction important here) from, say, 2mm-to-9mm without having to hold down on the fwd/rev handle while rotating the round knob. For example on my JUKI 1541S machine : Increasing the stitch length (round knob) the fwd/rev handle will float up without any hand assistance, BUT, when Decreasing the stitch length (round knob) the fwd/rev handle WILL need some hand assistance (pre-load if you will) to allow the stitch length (round knob) to rotate clock-wise, thus decreasing the stitch length. Hope that made sense. I'm a bit confused. New JUKI 1541S owner. Great video too, thanks.

Thank you so much for such a fantastic video! I have been sewing for decades but after trying to sew a window in a sailboat bimini (consisting of marine sunbrella and plastipane) using my Husqvarna Viking, I realized I needed a heavy duty machine. I've used a Sailrite LSZ-1 machine that was able to handle heavy duty sewing thru many thick layers for sails, marine canvas, many layers including leather but it's always been a bit temperamental and cannot handle lifetime thread when sewing a zigzag. However, living on a sailboat means that having a portable machine is a must because I cannot have a permanent sewing location. Is there a portable version of the Juki? Or is there a different portable machine that would meet my needs?

Do I need a new sewing machine, or a new servo motor for my Singer 95K which has a clutch motor fitted? I am looking at a second hand Seiko walking foot machine with a clutch motor ,will I still have the same problem with speed of stitch? how much does a motor play in speed of stich? and control? Thanks .

@AlexanderDyer 3 года назад

The motor will make all the difference. Put one on your existing machine and you can always switch it to your next machine if you decide to step up to triple feed. These mount into the existing 3 holes that the clutch motors use. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lavkvsU5ltk.html

@atomicskull6405 2 года назад

Walking foot is important if you want to sew kites or sailboard sails but for a different reason. Coated ripstop polyester is extremely frustrating to sew on a normal sewing machine because the feed dogs slip. It's a very light thin fabric with a feel more like plastic than cloth. Also dacron leading edges and nose webbing are pretty heavy duty sewing as well.
