you are welcome
It's really cool to learn from a seasoned pro!
Am I an upholsterer? No. Will I ever upholster anything in my life? Probably not. Did I watch the whole damn thing? Absolutely.
LOL Thanks for watching!
Very interesting. A lot more to auto upholstery then i would have imagined Mike c
Yes there is!
It is a very in-depth trade, which is usually a separate trade from standard upholstery
Very Interesting and good information Antony
Good stuff. thanks!
Nice video. Did you happen to get the model number of the Juki machine?
I didn't sorry
Thanks for the video. Can i use industrial walking foot machine for leathers to make jeans?
Sorry I don't know. That is the reason why I was there to try and learn.
I do. Use military fabric. Leather, canvas very similar to denim except it is waterproof military grade
What glue would be best for putting a cowhide on a headliner
I have know Idea
If you’re doing really any sort of headliner, I’d recommend using Landau Top and Trim adhesive. There are exceptions, but any sort of canned spray adhesive that you’re likely to have access to isn’t suitable for headliners or high heat/high stress applications.
I’m glad I watched this! Now im trying to find out what mapwheel he uses!
I am listening!
Thanks for the video, would have been better if they would have saved their questions for last and let the man teach without interruption. 🤷🏻♂️
The paper showing the stitch length was a good idea!
You really caught me with Paper does not lie. I am wondering why the paper when all I see is plastic tutorials for pattern making. I want to do aviation work
You can't stretch the paper, it will tear. Plastic you can stretch, distorting your pattern. You have to buy the thick plastic which costs much more. Also with paper you can write with pencil very finely, with the plastic you're using a marker. Figure 1/16th of an inch tip over a couple seams your patterns can be off 1/4 or 3/8th of an inch.
What model Juki is your machine?
Jami 1541
Not criticizing but when holding a cardboard chart up to show & point, bring it to the camera so WE can see. Not just the guy you’re talking to.
Thanks!
That is a monster machine, what model is it.
Sorry I was just videoing and trying to learn something so I don't have any answers for you
Wow he did talk a lot and less demo, I end up fast forward almost towards the end😂
Why is the tray in the way? You can't see anything. No demonstration and doesnt say what machine it is, bad video.
