Man, it's so nice to finally find a channel where someone takes newbies through the basics... another note, I enjoy having a male present this... makes me realize I'm not the only dude wanting to learn to sew.. lol
Oh man, once you get over the "gender rolls" sewing is a blast... people stopped making fun of me once I started making amazing costumes, clothes, and bags :)
I'm male and love making shirts
Man I wanted to sew cause I wanted to make a vest with my favorite bands on it and to make a horror movie jacket
I’m a male too and I like making costumes/cosplay. I’ve back stitched a “double ribbon trimmed” cape from a video game by hand and Jesus I’m so glad I bought my first sewing machine. Honestly I’m gonna return this Loops&thread machine and get a Singer. Idk what do u guys think? I’ll mainly only ever use a regular running/back stitch anyways. Not gonna do anything fancy. It cost me $38 at Michaels cuz I got a 40% off Coupon. I kinda want the Singer M3400. What does anyone think?
sewing=macho man
I am 64 year old farmer who I would have expected that this be the last tutorial that I would think of watching. Barbed wire rips the heck out of clothes. I operate a lot of machines but not one of these. Thanks for teaching in a way that all should model from, non intimidating and clarity off the charts. Keep Inspiring.
My aunt showed me how to sew when I was 10, I'm now 43. I was able to repair a seam on a duvet cover with your video. Not going to win prizes for sewing straight, but that duvet cover will be good for a while longer and I didn't have to buy a new one. Yay for me!
My 10-yr-old daughter and I are indebted to you for this wonderfully clear video. We bought this exact model last week and were so frustrated by the "instructions" as we could not even thread it. But after watching this, we were both so excited to try again, and it worked! She is so proud of making her first pillow! Thank you for the inspiration and the much-needed help. We will be watching all of your tutorials.
Oh I'm so happy to read your comment! Hope you and your daughter are having a lot of fun with all of your new projects. Happy Holidays, and have fun making all the new things!!
Congrats on the pillow.
Covid Isolation - Yesterday I was making ammunition - today I'm learning how to sew.
We should do this every year
lol you're going to have all the skills to survive anything by the time this is all over :)
No kidding. A bit of self-sufficiency is badly needed in US society. There are up-sides to everything.
Okay, so this is just like welding, but with thread. Got it.
@@PhillipLandmeier, true - unfortunately though I'm about 2 hours east of Melbourne Australia :)
I'm actually getting into this channel. These bad times are a great opportunuity to learn.
I bought my sewing machine about 3 years ago (Wife was very amused) and haven't had the time to learn how to use it.
Stay Safe Mate
I said the same thing and people think I'm crazy. Shut down the world for about 2 to 3 weeks and give people a break so you can learn new stuff or do things you've been putting off. Catch is vacation locals are off limits. I'd love the break and I'd learn so much!
lol
Watching a sewing video from a mountain looking man, when I don’t even own a sewing machine.
What day of quarantine is it??? 👀
lol, keep your sanity in tact! You're doing great!
I’m right there with you! Day 31 in Q for me! 🕯🦠🧼🧻🛌🧵
Same! I liked it, tho. He’s got a resonant voice which is soothing to listen to. I took sewing in high school back in the 70s but haven’t touched a machine since, so this was a good refresher. I imagine sewing machines have come a long way in the ensuring 45 years...
STOPPP WJEGJW
@@kelseylafever9562 Not sure what this means... but I hope it's a good thing!
I'm so grateful for this! I'm a woman in my 30s who has suddenly just decided to learn to sew...and I don't think I would have figured out my new sewing machine without this video.
If you've just decided to learn to sew don't listen to this guy he doesn't know what in the world he's talking about. I'm embarrassed for him and scared for anybody who he's failing to teach
He doesn't speak in condescending tones. I truly like that part.
I hate videos, and those old tv shows where the woman talks to you like you're a child.
You keep on learning here. Tock will explain it. If you're confused, ask him. Good luck. Naysayers go away.
LMAO same age and same problem XD
Same here!
@not_today_satan_7 you didn't even say what he's doing wrong lmao, get out of here
This is 1000% the best "introduction to sewing machines" video. I appreciate your way of breaking it down so simply and succinctly. Honestly the machines seem intimidating, but you made it less so. Blessed be.
Much appreciated my friend, glad to help out! Let me know if you have any other questions along the way :)
This video is perfect. Quick, concise, informative. Good angles, lighting, and audio. Thank you, I appreciate this, it helped me get started
Thank you so much for sharing the positivity! Happy this was helpful 😄
Monay McNeil Yes! No extra fluff. Just straight to the point with all the basics for a pure beginner. Loved it!
As a beginner, this was very helpfull.... Regards
Thank you!
Just tried using my sewing machine fir the first time. I so want to make some fleece pads for my guinea pigs cage so we can save on bedding. Unfortunately I am REALLY bad at using a sewing machine. Not sure what I did wrong but there is a ton of thread bunched up instead of an even line😭😭😭
This is the best beginner’s video I’ve found and I genuinely appreciate it
Thanks a ton! Happy to help!
Yeah right u probably know the guy.good comment dow
Fo Sho.
Lotta steps before you even get started. Ill get a more expensive one
God bless you sir for this...
Hey man, I hope you see this. I got my new sewing machine a couple of days ago. I’m a young 22 year old who’s aspiring to get into textiles.
As someone who has autism and struggles to follow instructions or understand mechanics, you’ve made this SO easy for me to understand and complete. You are very easy to listen to and make enjoyable content. I was fricken infuriated by some other the other videos but man I’m glad I found you.
Please keep doing what you’re doing as it helps young guys like me who have trouble learning/learning difficulties.
Edit : I just wanted to express the rage I had at some other videos because I couldn’t understand their instructions or I should say they didn’t articulate them as well as I needed them to.
The sense of relief man watching this. Seriously, you don’t know how much you can help people! You’re saving people like me a lot of stress and pain and you’re amazing for it. Thank you brother.
Much love from the UK
And this is why I love UA-cam. I'm 60 y.o. never sewed before, inherited a sewing machine, which has sat in the garage for 2 years. after watching this, I'm getting it out and putting it to work. Thank you for making it look easy 😏
That's terrific to hear, hope you enjoy getting used to your machine and planning out what kinds of projects you'd like to make :)
Do heros wear capes ??
Well this one make his own 😂
Thanks man for the video 👍
Hell yeah! Oooo I should do a video on capes and cloaks! Good call
@@TockCustom Please inclue some pockets, deep ones. That would be fabulous, hoods too please. 💜
This one has a mighty beard :)
Truly Excellent. Appreciate the pace, info, speed of speech, intelligence level, no crappy music. 10/10
lol I love everything about this comment. Thanks for watching :)
I just realized how freaking awesome sewing machines are found a new hobby thanks
I'm a beginner seamstress learning to make costumes and am so clueless with sewing. Looks like we have the exact same model too so I know I can rely on your tutorial for my new journey with sewing. I just hope I dont prick myself to death making mistakes XD thanks again for the instruction
Hi Tommy
@@goodjob769 nnn65n you ú
An occasional prick won't kill you.🤣
Your video here has taken a lot of the mystery out sewing. And you've answered the question I've had for the last fifty years--how do sewing machines sew?--with the animation insert @1:19. Thank you. Your entire presentation was concise and cogent. I have subscribed.
Yeah, that animation box was enlightening!
Ikr.... Me too lol
Hear hear, 30 years of mystery cleared up in a few seconds!
Me too. Thank you... Subscribed. 😈💖🐶🐾
Yeah really I subscribed but can you shout out to subscribe to Southwinner 191 my channel
And this is how you get a new subscriber. Perfect video
Seriously, this comment means a lot. Thank you!
Same...looking to use my MIL's machine to do some motorcycle jacket work. Covid has me doing so crazy schtuff...and learning to sew is getting added to the list...LOL..thanks man!
Agreed!!
thank you - this is exactly the sort of thing I was looking for
subscribed!
@@TockCustom do you think this beginners machine is good enough to sew zipper on a thick tarp? There's no instructional video for beginner's regarding sewing on thick material
I appreciate that you used a basic machine! I just bought an older model sewing machine and this was the most helpful video. Thank you so much!!
Thank you from Belgium, never used a sewing machine in my life, and now I made already 8 masks, 20 more to go.
Thats amazing!! So happy I could be helpful with you getting into a new skill. Hope you're staying safe and having a lot of fun with it 😃
My mother was a seamstress and I often wondered how a sewing machine worked as I wasn’t interested back then, silly me.. You have shown me exactly how and I sincerely thank you. I don’t have one I just wanted to know cause I am a mechanic who likes to know how things work.
Thank you for this comment, I actually started sewing because I was curious how clothes were actually made... I just happened to fall in love with it along the way! Hope you're having a great weekend!
Isn't curiosity wonderful? Sometimes.
20 years after my last sewing project, I forgot a bunch of the finer points. This was perfect as a refresher with no nonsense.
Thank you for the positive comment! Hope you enjoy getting back into sewing! :)
I’m a 61-year-old woman and I’ve never song before in my life. My mom used to sell and make clothes for us when we were little sometimes. I used to watch her and thought it looked fun, but I never sewed anything before. I thought I’d take it up as a hobby. I must say you are an excellent instructor. You’re clear concise to the point. You explain clearly and go over once again more challenging aspects. I’m going to be a new subscriber cheer channel. I think your excellent!
My wife dumped some more sewing on my desk and I think it's time to mechanize...Thanks for the video which is well-structured, presented in a calm voice with no annoying background music.
Glad this was helpful to you. I appreciate the positive comment :) Have a great Sunday!
I just found your channel and I've never seen a cool guy sewing clothes, it makes me happy
Makes me very happy too! Glad you enjoyed, more to come soon too 😄
Bro thanks! Like many dudes we think this isn’t in our wheelhouse or let “the women do it”. This is exactly what I need to repair or rework some of my Police and a Military gear. Hot glue and Velcro can only take me so far 😆
For sure, there is nothing stronger than good stitch-work, even contact cement. I never got caught up in the "Men shouldn't sew thing", once people saw what I was making, people were more excited than judgmental :)
oh god! it is the first time that I know a man who guide to sewing..it is amazing in my country. a new friend from Viet Nam!
Yay! I'm so happy you found my channel! Hope these videos are helpful to you, happy to meet you and to have a new friend from across the world
I didn’t know that anyone could make sewing look badass. Complete with the decals and everything
lol thanks! I appreciate the comment
I bought this exact model because of watching this video. Thank you for breaking this down step by step. I had to rewind a few times to see a few steps but it was still laid out very well. I don't feel nearly as intimated after watching this awesome tutorial. Thank you!
Excellent! Happy this was so helpful! Hope you start making some amazing things
Wow Ive just learned to use a sewing machine from a real hippie...How cool is that
Is that a good thing? lol
@@TockCustom absolutely !
right of The Allman Bros album!
@@paulhewson4600 Just a different type of talent.
Nothing against the typical "sewing instructors" on UA-cam, but you blow them away. BTW... love your voice. It's super relaxing. :-)
Thank you so much for such a wonderful compliments, I love helping people out and appreciate the love
You are such a breath of fresh air watching you sew and teaching others. I'm a grandma and haven't sewn in 30 years; however, I just bought a simple machine and I am going to do a lot of practicing before I go full force, so to speak. I have also been telling my (male) baristas at the local Starbuck's about how you sew and teach with your videos. Anyway, thanks for the tutorials and keep adding them, please.
Thank you so much for such a thoughtful and positive comment! I really appreciate the support and telling folks about my channel :) Seriously, appreciate the help!
Thank you. I watched half a dozen "tutorial" videos before finally stumbling upon your video. I wish I found this video first. Zooms in when and where needed and explains everything perfectly!
I truly appreciate this comment! I'm always happy when people notice what I'm trying to do to help beginners. Hope you're having a terrific week!
Thank you! I’ve owned a sewing machine for years but haven’t actually used one since Home Ec - 20 years ago. I’m at home with nothing but time and your concise lesson was just what I needed to make masks for essential workers in my community.
You're very welcome! Thank you for watching :) Hope you're doing terrific this week
WOW... My mom sewed for decades, tried to teach me since my teens, (didn't work out, a.d.d. or something). I can thread the needle and load a bobbin and do simple stitching. Long story shortened... I've always wondered how the stitch was formed b/w needle and bobbin and your inset illus. finally answered that!!! I am now 49 years old and my brain feels a little more at peace today. Thank you!!
New sub just on that alone.
Hahahaha, I love that animation. It was mind-blowing for me too, yet so simple! I appreciate the sub, thanks for watching :D
Thank you so much for putting up this video. The whole thing allowed someone who has never touched a sewing machine before to showing middle schoolers how to sew in a matter of minutes!
Love that you went at beginners pace. Thank you
You are very welcome, thank you so much for watching :)
DUDE!!!!! ....YOU'RE *THE BEST* I've seen so far...... You are engaging, clear explanations and animations, samples, your voice is comfortable to hear (not high pitch), and easy on the eyes 👀 😁.....
....THANK YOU!!!!
Thank you so much for cramming so many amazing compliments into such a short and thoughtful comment! Happy to help, hope you have a terrific weekend
You are most welcome....and thank YOU for teaching....gona do my first try on a Brother LX3817 .... I'll let you know how it goes😁.....wish me luck 😁
Mr Tock! I really love your video for two things. That you mentioned that you can pull the thread through the eye of the needle manually and the automatic threader. I struggled with the automatic threading method for more than a whole day untill I saw your video. Tried many others before. Thanks so much! ❤️❤️❤️
This is thee video to watch if your a beginner . I wish I seen this last night I was up all night watching non helpful videos I don’t even have this kind of machine but he explained it and showed it to where I can actually SEE, so well I go it !!!! Thank you so much 😊 thank you 🙏🏽
I'm so thankful you enjoyed this video! Hope it helps you get started on some new projects this winter :) Thank you for watching!
Hi Tock Custom. I've had a sewing machine my late mother gifted to me over 12 years ago and I've never used it because I don't know how to sew on a sewing machine. It's been sitting in it's case all these years and I refuse to get rid of it because I do want to learn. Your video came up randomly and I quickly clicked on it. It was very precise. I think the one my mother gifted me was a singer but I will have to take it out and see. That machine is VERY HEAVY so I don't mess with it lol. New subscriber and I will be following. Thank you and I will be binge watching your videos to catch up :-)
I'm so happy to hear that this was so helpful! Yeah those old machines are a BEAST, but they last forever. They just lack some of the convenient features of modern sewing machines. Would love to hear if you get it running :)
Literally the best beginner video I found until now. Absolutely fantastic! 🧡
Thank you so much for the positive feedback, so happy this was helpful to get your started! Let me know if you have any other questions along the way :)
I needed a foolproof beginner to sewing video so I can start using a sewing machine. I made a blanket years ago but it was horrible looking but everyone wanted to use it because I doubled the bunting and it was warm as you could get. Now I can start really learning so I can teach my adult daughter so she can sew as well. Thank you Sir for your channel
Happy to help any time my friend! Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help. Hope you're having fun with some new projects!
Please give yourself a very very very big and warm hug from me and hold it for 5 min😊😊😊😊 AFTER 2 YEARS OF TRYING AND WATCHING COUNTLESS VIDEOS I FINALLY TREAD MY SINGER HEAVY DUTY SEWING MACHINE THANKS TO YOU. I’m sold, I’m a subscriber 👊🏿👏👏👏👏🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Wow. By the time I'm even done with prepping the machine, I'm expecting a sweater to come out of that
Well, once you get the hang of it, sweaters will start popping out all over your workspace!
Hee hee! You SAY "simple" but it's astoundingly intricate.
Thanks so much for this! You didn't muck around.
Hope this helped you get started - I did my best to keep it simple. After you get used to it, you'll feel a lot more comfortable with it :)
Have a great day!!
I was given a Singer from my Grandmother and I've yet to try it. And I use to sit by my Great-Grandmother watching her to sew all the time.
That's really special, hopefully you can get into it and keep those memories alive 😊
@@TockCustom I will one day. :)
This is the first sewing video that I watch that makes so much sense and so easy to follow, no nonsense no bunch of chatter,Great video thank you much
This is the only video that explained everything so I could understand. Thank you!
I am truly so happy to hear that. Thank you for your kind words and support :)
0 it
Very helpful and easy to understand.
I just bought my first sewing machine a used old Singer Electronic. Thanks for this video. Who else here has purchased their first in 2019?
I'm pretty sure I've bought at least one sewing machine every year since I started... so do I still qualify?
P Gaven I’m about to! Just can’t choose the right one
I've repaired a few machines and got a bit interested in making "something" Have now watched a couple of your videos and will watch more. My wife doesn't sew but, has some friends I've been able to bounce questions off of. Those like most women doing sewing videos, "assume" that the viewer knows the terminology and some of the process. Your pocket video immediately solved a problem in pattern directions for me. Then went to buttons. I'll be continuing but, wanted to THANK you for your clarity of directions in a way that even this ol' guy could understand. Beginner at 76...lol
Thank you so much for sharing this comment! It makes me very happy to have been part of you learning some techniques and getting excited about making new things. I really appreciate your kind words.
It's never too late to make a change or learn a new skill in life. I'm very excited you have something new to get into! Have a terrific week :)
Subscribed! As a guy who likes to get creative, I suddenly got this sudden urge to get a sewing machine but I've never used one. I'll be watching more of your videos and decide on what machine to get.
Sounds awesome, let me know if you're looking for any recommendations! Enjoy the ride 😀
Got my first sewing machine today after not having used one since home ec. in grade 7, but I need to repair a lot of things. My mom never taught me to sew even though she was a seamstress. I like your presentation style and how clear it was. I'm looking forward to watching your other videos.
Brand new to this,old retired guy,sick of asking others to do some sewing repairs and things for me.Got a newbasic machine with high hopes.Well presented video,good camera shots,well explained.Thanks for posting,new sub.
Thanks a ton for the new sub! Hope you enjoy learning some new sewing skills, please reach out if you have any questions along the way. Hope you have a wonderful week!
Fantastic tutorial. I can tear down a Catt 3108, replace a high pressure injector line at sea on a Perkins 6354... But I could not for the life of me figure out our Singer basic machine. Thanks to Tock Custom I am repairing socks, shirts and other items, giving them a longer life. And saving us from buying new cloths when we don't need to. Really appreciate the work that went into this video!
I've had my sewing machine for well over a year and have struggled with learning how to use it since. This is the first of at least 15 videos I've watched that actually made sense to me! I seriously can't explain how excited I am. lol Thank you so much!
Love the practical, efficient, and descriptive way you walked through everything. It really helped since I'm at the very beginning of my learning journey. Thank you!
One of the best How To videos I've seen. Right to the point and visually crystal clear.
Much appreciated my friend, happy to help. Hope you have a great week!
This video makes everything make sense. It's not flashy or gimmicky, just the needed info. I've never operated a sewing machine and this by far the best tutorial so far...& from a guy!!! Love it!
Thank you so much for watching, happy this was so helpful :) Hope you have a wonderful holiday season this year!
Absolute best tutorial I have ever seen! I have been trying to learn for years! And now I’m more confident in beginning my sewing journey thanks to you!! I am absolutely grateful for this Thank You!
I truly appreciate such a positive comment! Hopefully you're having fun getting into sewing and making some cool new projects
N S I see you like Linkin Park, do you like BMTH too?
Omg IM so thankful i found this! I got a sewing machine when i was 16, used it once or twice but couldn’t figure it out, I’m 32 time to dig that thing out now that i have time!!! Excited!!!
That's excellent! Hope you have fun making some great new projects. Feel free to let me know if you have any questions, or if you'd like to share your work. Hope you have a terrific weekend
The best basic instruction with great photos and pictures. Thanks for not “side stepping” the bobbin shuttle explanation.
I've had a similar sewing machine in my closet downstairs for YEARS; even took a class to learn; nope - could not figure out how to thread the thing... until NOW; Thanks!! a new project for my daughter and I to start together!!
Omg that's amazing! It makes me really happy that this video helped to get you excited about sewing again. Please reach out if you need any help along the way. Hope you and your daughter have fun making some new things :D
This is the best sewing tutorial I have ever seen! Straight forward & well explained 😊 You have saved my project & sanity. Thank you!
I'm new to sewing, mostly for damage repair, and ive learned so much in a short time from your videos. My mother spent her adult life in front of a sewing machine and this brings so many memories for me. Thanks a bunch. I made my first straight stitch today and I felt like I just won the game !
If you ever make anything, you are always a winner. Keep it up, and let me know if you have any questions along the way. Thanks a ton for watching buddy!
My mother was a tailor sewed my new blue jeans
Thank you so much!! I bought my Singer about 10 years ago and have not been able to sew anything!!! I recently got into miniatures and decided to pull it out again! Your tutorial is simple and straight to the point! I was able to make my curtains and bedding for my miniature house!!! Thanks so much!!!
I’m brand new and live where there isn’t a sewing shop to take lessons. Thank you so very much!!!
I'm so happy these videos can be helpful then! I really appreciate the support :)
Thank you for your instructions. It took away the fear of trying to operate a sewing machine!!!
Excellent! Hope you have some fun learning some new projects soon! Let me know how it goes :)
Thank you SO much for this video and more to come. I put away my machine years ago out of frustration having problems I wouldn’t have had had I viewed this video. I’m excited to learn more. I have a Viking since 1980 and also have a straight stitch very old Singer both unused for years so I’m going to give myself a test with your video at hand!!! Thank you again!!!
You're so welcome, hope you can get back into making some fantastic things through the new year! Have a wonderful holiday
i REALY ENJOYIED YOUR VIDEO. I'm a 75 year old man, and I have only done a little sewing. I never understood how it worked. My first sewing machine was a 1949 Singer, with separate button hole attachments and other attachments which I never learned how to use. The drive wheel developed a flat spot due to being stored for several years with the wheel engaged. I bought another sewing machine, which was a Singer 32 function stitch machine which I didn't have much luck with, but I am going to try again.
Many, many thanks for this! I've sat in front of the same machine for hours yesterday cursing at the instructions, and now it's all clear to me how to do the bobbin and threading thing. Very helpful - thanks again!
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching :)
I am very thankful! I've watched many tutorials none of them had the good easy and simple explaining as you do, i thought it's complicated dealing with sewing machine but your video changed the whole idea! you really did a good job thank you again 😭😻!!
I really appreciate this comment! When i was new at sewing, I wish there were some more clear tutorials out there, so I figured I'd start making my own :)
Thanks for watching, hope you have a terrific week!
This was a very simple and clean video. I actually learned how to thread the machine . Now just to get it.
I feel way more confident trying to learn to use a sewing machine
Very happy to hear this was so helpful. Hope you've been able to get a machine you like and start making some cool stuff since then. Sorry for the late reply!
This was very helpful for me, as in doing sewing classes in high school and now starting again. Only because I forgot the small things that the machine doesn't arrow out shall I say🤣 I watched this for weeks and now I finally have all parts (pedal, bobbin, thread and foot pedal.) So I'm officially watching it for the last time and remembering. I appreciate you bc that's how you know I enjoy your commentary. Straight to the point. Accurate and easy. Again thanks for the Ted sewing edition of my vent plur🤣✌🏼🗯🗯🗯🗯
I'm happy this was so helpful! Hope you're able to get started sewing again so you can make some fun new projects. Let me know if you have any questions along the way.
Have a terrific weekend!
I just want to thank you. I'm new to sewing and was so daunted by how complicated it all seems. I've watched videos, but it wasn't until finding you that I finally feel I can actually do it. You make it all seem so manageable and so doable. Thank you!!
Thank you so much. I just ordered a machine - I've always wanted to learn, and you are a great teacher. I'll be watching all of your videos. thanks a million.
Very happy to help! Let me know if you have any questions along the way :)
Wrong. The first thing you need to do after you unbox this is get out a ton of stickers and attack your machine THEN plug in the pedal etc. etc. lol! Thanks Tock. I was a chicken before I watched this video but now I am transformed into a sewing whiz...well almost. :-D
Haha yeah exactly, heh, I love it, he makes sewing cool 😎
My stickers have gotten way out of control since your comment! Thank you so much for watching and the positive reply
You're too kind, thanks for watching :)
lmao, I love these comments!
@@TockCustom LOL. Same :-))
This is why I watch different videos. You pointed out, or did, things differently than I've previously seen. Thank you.
Aww my mom used to sew, I never cared for it when I was younger, but now that she's gone I can't see a sewing machine without thinking about her. This video is perfect for me to finally get started. And my hubby is a cheese head so that caught my eye. New Subbie!
Truly excellent tutorial. Clear, concise, too the point, excellent close up angles especially when I needed to thread the needle. Never used a machine until today and decided to use this lockdown to learn a new skill. Well done Tock❤️
I'm soooooooo happy this was so helpful! Thank you so much for such a positive comment :D
One thing I have found, in these later years, is that my eyesight has changed. I use a needle threder on my sewing needle, hand and machine, because I can't see the small slit in the needle anymore.
Just a suggestion.
Right on man, keep it up!!
SUPER helpful!! Thank you for actually getting down into the nitty gritty of how it works. It always helps me to know the “why” behind the steps and I know this will only set an awesome foundation for my sewing journey. Thank you!!
I have just bought a 2nd hand sewing machine without a manual and until I watched this didn't have a clue how to work it. You have a good way of explaining things, will defo be watching more of your videos!
Very happy this was so helpful! Please let me know if you have any other questions as you're learning. Thank you for watching!
Best Tutorial on UA-cam!
You're way too kind! Thank you for watching, hope you have a great weekend!
Simple and clear instructions. Not overwhelming at all. This us awesome for beginners. Thank you! 👌
You are so very welcome :) Happy new year!
Seriously I don’t know how many videos I’ve went through today trying to figure out my machine and so far this is the best video!! Thanx so much homie!!!
For sure, very happy this was so helpful. Let me know if you have any questions as you're learning! Hope you're having a terrific weekend
I'm making a removable tonneau cover for my Model A Coupe hotrod....NO ONE I reached out to showed ANY interest in sewing the edges up for me! My wife said she had a machine she got years ago and has never opened, it's this exact machine! I want to thank you for the clear and concise instruction. This will allow me to finish the edges on the cover. I'll probably be able to make my own interior panels and seat covers now!!
I just ordered a sewing machine, fabric, and stuff. Going to have loads of fun making home made aprons for the kids for our new work shop setup. Great video, thanks!
Thanks for watching! Happy this helped you get setup and started. Hope you have fun making all kinds of new projects over the winter :D
I'm just looking at the instructions (I'm a beginner) for the Singer 4432.
Just letting you know, (according to MY instructions in the Singer manual, that are VERY hard to follow)...
After the thread leaves the main spool/when you are trying to fill your bobbin, it wraps DIFFERENTLY around that first silver thing(before it heads back to your bobbin.) Different than what Tock shows here. So I guess we have to Look at our OWN manual.
I don't know why Singer doesn't just hire this guy TOCK to make videos for them. I can SEE and UNDERSTAND Tock's videos, but the drawings in the Singer manual is really difficult to follow... I'm guessing that each machine wraps the thread it's own way.
C'MON Singer! Get this guy to make your videos!!!

@@TockCustom I have a few questions on my sewing machine my needle keeps getting stuck I did all the steps you informed in the video please help
Great video, thanks. I’ve had this so machine in the garage for 10 years and today I decided to get it out and learn how to use it.
I’m a 54 yo never sewing before, I thought I’m gonna redo my outside furniture cushions,,,,, what! A month later I watched your video and now I know how to use the sewing machine.. I had know idea of the bob mechanics that add thread … etc etc. thanks a million ! Now I can move forward with my summer project
Totally would have tried to wind the bobbin by hand like some kind of sucker. Thanks for being thorough. Great video
Hahaha, glad this was helpful. Hope you end up making some cool stuff!
So happy I came across your vídeo!!
Thank you for explaining so well!!
Thank you so much for watching!!
Thank you very much. You saved my sanity. One minute’s explanation from you ended half an hour tearing my hair out. Now I can get on with my sewing.
Glad it helped! Thank you so much for watching!
I'm a nearly 63 year old man, and I could never understand how a sewing machine worked. Your one simple graphic was somewhat mind-blowing. *lol* I always thought I'd learn to sew someday, and now being retired, I'm going to!
Thanks for the video. You have a new subscriber.
Thank you so much for watching and the positive comments :) That little animation was a great find to share with everyone. I can't take credit, but still happy to teach what I can.
I love this guy ❤️ and this is my first time watching! Explanation is clear and easy to understand. I would take his sewing class in real life.
Big love! :D Thanks for the support!
Thank you so much,I have this machine lost the CD that came with it, I will be following you for more.👍👍👍👍👍
Oh excellent, happy to help!
This video is super convenient especially considering I just bought this exact sewing machine before finding this video and have never used one in my life. Can't wait to get into it.
My late mother taught me to sew when I was about 9 years old. She had a White treadle operated machine (I have it now) that she made wedding dresses for many women, and clothes for us kids, and a couple suits for dad. She used to put me on the treadle for rides when I was a baby. I have done my own sewing for 37 years.
I bought an inexpensive Singer a few years ago. I thought having zig zag stitching would be nice. Straightened the legs on three flare bottom pants (to go with the newer style). I bought the singer because it had the raised sewing platform to sew pant cuffs. The next time I went to use it, it did nothing but make "nesting" clumps (I never changed any settings). I'm back to using the 123 year old trusty, well built, White treadle.
trying to learn how to sew, I think this video will be a great help!
p.s i really like how you respond to every comment ive seen!
I really hope it is helpful when you give it a shot, let me know if you have any questions along the way.
p.s. If people are going to take the time to watch my videos, and take the time to comment on them - they certainly deserve my attention to respond
