Very Nice and Clear Video, with some of the best explanations of why you do this or that, and the findings of your test both front and back of the stitching. Thanks a lot!!!!!
How should I hold the bobbin case while adjusting the tension? Case toward me,bobbin spool away or case away from me bobbin toward me? it makes a difference in what direction I am turning the screw.
Doing my H test the balance between bobbin and upper thread is perfect 33/33/33 at 700stm speed but changes to 10/80/10 (Almost (not quite) similar to your middle sample) if I slow it down, say 300 stitch per minute speed on my Tajima. So Speed effects tension test??
Hello, My tensions seem fie except for my number 3, which is like your middle H. I hvae tightened and loosened he top, and bobbin case, but still no difference. Can you help please? Thank you.
You can do this test file yourself if you have a simple editing program like Embrilliance Essentials, Embird, or SewWhat-pro. I used SewWhat-Pro coz is the cheapest of the three, and highly sophisticated for its price. You just have to open a big square or round hoop, I did it with a 300mm x 300mm square hoop, and get a big cap letter "H", although any letter can do it as long is you use large caps, not small caps. Then, you assign the color of the thread according to the colors you have in your machine's thread tree, and after you have done this, saved it to a USB stick in the format you use, normally .dst or .dsb. Then, when you go to your machine and open this file, assign the colors in the same fashion you do for any other design, using ALL the color positions you have in your machine's thread tree and then stitch it. In my case, I used 16 "H's" in my 15-needle machine, the 16th one being the same color as # 1. In that fashion I am checking also that my machine is able to do drastic needle changes from # 15 to # 1, and did tree tests- one at 300spm, another at 700spm, and the last one at 1050spm to check the full performance of my machine, and I cleaned and oiled/lubricated my machine just before doing these tests. Hope this helps you, and the Lord be with you!!!!

Where can I download the file to do this test?
SERIOUSLY!!!!
@@AngelOwlgang not everyone has the knowledge or tools to set up the file.
