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

[fragged8]

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:

[PDQ]

[fragged8]

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
