Olá! Excelente vídeo explicativo. Sempre foi uma incógnita para mim o funcionamento do looper desta máquina, mas com o nível de detalhe aqui mostrado dá para entender o funcionando sem precisar escutar o áudio, pois não entendo a língua inglesa. Muito obrigado por nos disponibilizar este vídeo. Deus lhe abençoe
Really Fascinating sewing mechanism. 📌Want to know How to Thread & Oil a Willcox & Gibbs sewing machine? Watch this 👉🏽 ua-cam.com/video/OalVFsOGSDw/v-deo.html
Very clearly explained. Thank you for posting this. Is there an advantage to a chain stitch? Are there fabrics where this sews better than would a machine with a bobbin? Is this type of stitching mechanism easier to adjust and keep in service than a shuttle machine with a bobbin inside? (Lotsa questions, I know.) Thanks again.
Hello Jerry. I know that using a chain stitch for embroidery projects is preferred by some and others do quilting projects using the Willcox & Gibbs. The W&G sewing machine has different needle sizes to suit different fabrics and the number of stitches per inch can be adjusted too. Hope the other videos I did about W&G would be helpful too.
Except for one single disadvantage, straight chain stitching is really good at sewing seams which need to have a little bit of give to them - think of jeans subject to lots of pull and movement when worn or knit fabrics with lots of stretch. They make a very pretty embroidery stitch automatically. It's a little bit easier to work with really thick threads than on a domestic lockstitch machine and with some difficult materials, and both their lower stitch (the one shown in embroidery work) and their upper stitch (which is the same as on a lockstitch machine) can be made to look really good on on materials of varying density. Their sole disadvantage is that the seam can be relatively easily pulled apart by pulling on one of the two ends. All the loops pull out in a chain. Of course, that's how the 'pull to open' seams are made on things like bags of dog food. I use chain stitching a lot for making seams I need to baste but which have to be really strong while basted. I use it for tough denim and challenging (at least for me) to sew materials like ultra-suede. One disadvantage, a ton of advantages. Nobody on the Internet has ever explained it as well as this creator, by the way. Her videography was great!
This was great! Thank you for showing such a clear view and explanation of how the magic mechanism under the plate is actually making the stitch! 😊

The stitch can stretch and therefore can be used on knits...
