Update on my previous comment ,1 month ago when I watched your video over and over ,pausing and rewinding for a couple of hours,,, and then I was greatful for your info , with this new knowledge I was excited to start sowing stuff....unfortunately I couldn't even get past step 3 ,, and I gave up and threw the dam thing in the cupboard, . I've kept the box so thinking of giving to my sister as a 50th birthday present😉😉 Ps you 2 are a lovely couple , thanks one again ❤
You guys rock! I just opened mine that came in the mail from Amazon with over 3k ratings (wtf?!) and I had the same exact problem so I went searching on UA-cam and found this video. It explains it all and it looks like I'll be returning mine, as well. Back to the regular sized sewing machine!
Thanks for your support. I'm glad you were able to find our video. We also went back to our regular sewing machine, Unfortunately, we couldn't find a replacement so if you find a good one please let us know. Thanks!
I thought it was a simple sewing machine,, didn't realise I,d need a university degree in sowing . Thanks for the video , , full gratitude and appreciation the effort you put in with your editing too
A really good tutorial is by Easy Sewing for Beginners. How to operate a handheld sewing machine. I hope people will watch it before sending the machine back, as it has loads of tips x
I know I'm late, but I just got one of these at a garage sale, but just like a sewing machine you have to turn the round know that makes the needle go up and down manually just to get that first stitch to catch at the bottom. Then, start sewing while holding the fabric at the same time. I'm sure you git it by now anyways lol
@Raccish yes, that keeps happening to me, too. A friend told me this machine is not for mending but only for making stitch designs, if that makes sense, because it doesn't have a bottom bobbin.
You have to make a knot when you finish the line you have sewed. It takes practice but you can make curtains; hem trousers,skirts etc; you can make alterations e.g taking things in. And yes you need to hand roll needle down to make first stitch 😊
I can see the issue with that machine, that isn't the right screw for the needle holder. I'm guessing someone over-tightened the original and stripped out the threads (no pun intended) so they replaced it with a slightly thicker screw and it's chewed out any threads left. The original screw that holds the needle is designed to be turned with just your hand. it had finger ridges. it does have a slot in it for a small flathead as well but you don't need to/shouldn't crank it that hard to make it secure. probably how the original owner stripped it out.
Why would you guys post a YT video titled “ Step by Step tutorial” if you guys both don’t even know what the hell your Doing? Waste of YT space, before recording the video perfect the tutorial your gonna post, I thought it was common sense ..
Thank you so much for posting this video. I had the same exact problem. I’ll be returning my hand held sewing machine!

Thankyou for starting with the fabric intact.

I tried this and it kind of works but the sticking don't stay in the fabric. Only a small part did then it came out for no reason

@@myoneandonlysavior ah that makes sense

@@FYCOSOUNDZ thanks I'll keep on practicing
What kind of fabric can be sown with this ?
Wish I woulda seen this before I ordered it. Got it yesterday and hate it. Same problem. It’s junk. Sending mine back.
Mine came threaded and worked but after that sample patch I couldn't figure out how to get it to work again
Mine too! Now every time i try to use it, it skips stitching so much it's impossible to use. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong 😅
We have the same problem on the same brand, it doesn’t stitch so I have to return it

I didn't get any scissors, , measuring tape and only 3 bobbins total!
Nice teach about handy siving machine
How do I take off the bobbin to switch thread? . You just took it off and didn't say HOW??
I bought this long time ago and never used it and I'm having the same issue, it wont Stich
Howto order maam
Anyone knws how to spool the Bobbin once it runs out?

That was disappointing at the end
Useless products not stiching well 🥶🥶same brand don't buy
Your right it didn’t well for me
Battery 🔋 chahiea
I hate it. Too much of this and that. My battery case was stuck. Almost broke it to get it open. I dont see where the stitches are very sturdy.
Dont work!!
Mine doesn't work either. Same crap
