hey Raf :-)
You got me really confused today , I got a strange parcel in the post
with some material samples and a DVD :-) but no id from the sender.
great music on the DVD hehe
Did you want me to run them though my machine ?
Rich
So you wanted to check out the all singing all dancing Weathermax.
Go ahead , see if your Juki can sew the stuff without gathering the Bejesus out of it.
::)
I worked with some westhermax a few weeks ago. I didn't have any gathering. I have a real lite pressure on my foot
BEJESUS --- I tried a little today
i don't think i'll be buying Weathermax anytime soon
that stuff is horrible to sew.
I went up a needle size and down a needle size, more foot pressure
and less foot pressure. going to a bigger needle works a fair bit
but it was a 21 so i'd probably get leaks if it was a top.
Did you get a very light wobble on the seam though Mike before
you top stitched it ?

No it seemed like top gun or a SIMM product. Not to say I liked it I don't care for coated canvas like that.
I'd rated have weblon or stamoid
you top stitched it ?
Ey lad nowt but a nightmare.
Was it the "80" or the light weight" you had a go at ?
I thought you would have been able to get it flat on a new jookie.
I was going to order one like yours If you had outstanding results.
Perhaps Mike is just laughing at us.. Being provincial clowns who don't use
Gud ol' Singer machines :-*
When i get a chance i'll run the others through,
I have sewn Odessey before and it's been ok
but i don't like it much.
I'll let you know how it goes.
Apparently WeatherMax has adopted a new mascot to promote their wares:

;D
the rear end of that looks like my mother in law
:o
I agree. ;D
hehe don't you just miss the days before political correctness
when a mother in law joke or a good racial joke was funny .
Ahhh the good old days
