Just wanted to pass this on to all of you in the event your interested.

Sail Rite just released a new series of videos on making awnings. They are free to watch on youtube.

Here is a link to them:

I know we have a lot of newbies on here so maybe there is something there they can pick up that will help them.

Also I would love to hear feedback on them from the veteran stitchers. Are the videos pretty
accurate in their instruction ?

for those of you running firefox you can download the video if you
get the toolbar addon at ant.com

or get a program called Orbit grab.

The videos are looking like a step up in quality from some of sailrite's earlier video how to material. Cleaver marketing releasing these videos along with the new awning hardware? The overall price point of sailrite's retail hardware and supplies is looking rather attractive....not quite as attractive as having a wholesale account :) with other suppliers

Has anyone used the sailrite professional machines? I bought the LSZ1 about 8 years ago and have found it a really handy tool to have in the back of the truck, etc.

Yes I confess to having just bought a new LSZ1, lovely machine well pleased with it.
