Hi Siah just wanted to say I have the Juki 1541 & use it for bag making & to make hair scrunchies. It can handle the thinner fabrics just use a smaller size needle. I use it for the lining for bags & haven't had any issues. So don't let that what they say about it not being good for bag making turn you away from the 1541. My juki 1541 is amazing I love it and wouldn't trade it for anything else. It's heavier duty but can do light duty as well. I have sewed satin hair scrunchies on this machine with no issues. Hope this helps..

I also use the Juki 1541s for bag making. Since my Juki 5550 is set up right next to the 1541 I use that for linings but the 1541 sews 8 oz canvas and lightweight cordura beautifully. Also, the 1541 is able to turn on a dime topstitching. I think it is a matter of what you become used to doing and not being fearful of trying everything. All these machines are amazing to work with.

This was a fantastic video!!!!

I love a “Siah in the wild” video! This was amazing! One day I will have room!

Thank you for doing this video!!!!! I love that he ships..... :)

Wow, such a ton of great information. Wonderful, thank you for sharing.

Oh wow. I have already learned two things I needed to know!

Thank You so much for all this great info

Thanks Jack and Vicki (and Kassiah) for the very educational tour!

This video is amazing. Thank you. I could listen to jack talk sewing machines forever. 😂

So Happy to hear this is in Denver! I moved from there but Moving back!! I’ll definitely be going in!! Thank you for this video!

That was the best video ive seen in what machine is best for what you are making. I have watched so many videos and still left with so many questions. Thank you Siah, Jack and Vicki!You guys rock! I now know in confidence what machine to be looking at in next couple of years i will purchase and where from when my bags are selling enough to afford one. DId my first industrial on financing and wasnt the right machine for me, so i got a walking foot (mini) industrial to do my finishing work. ughhh but i now know what machine i need to avoid 2 off them and the sale of these 2 will help to afford my "Dream Machine". I love bag making but Kasiah you make it so much more helpful to learn and move forward. Thank you for all you do!

Oh, thank you for this video!! I live in Cheyenne, WY and plan to go to Ralphs this week!!!

Such a fun field trip. Thanks Jack and Siah.

Thank you Shiniah, for filming that. I sure wished I had seen it before I bought my Juki from Amazon. Now I am on my own when it comes to questions about anything. I hope the answer about the pressure on the walking foot is the same for my Juki. Going to check it now. I love your teaching.

Wouah great video ! I have a Juki 1181 N bought here in Switzerland and have loved to see other machines !👌👌👌👌😉

OMG! Loved this! So informative! I have been on the fence about purchasing an industrial machine for so so long! I've researched and delayed on the hefty investment. I think watching this segment has help me make up my mind. Thank you again....to both of you and don't forget the camera person! ❤

I’m blessed to have both industrials, flatbed and cylinder they are a game changer in bag making. Thank you for a great tutorial and tour thru sewing machine heaven 🙏❤🙏❤

Makes me miss living in Denver. Jack took care of me when I bought my machine there in 2012.

Brilliant video, wish I saw this before I bought a machine. I purchased a Seiko H-2BL-AE-1. I live in the country but I purchased it from the city which is a 5 hour drive. I was having a few issues and the technician from Elizabeth machines helped but it hasn't fixed the issues. It's hard when you have no idea what your doing and you have no one to help you if you have a problem. Thanks for the tips especially with oiling since the manual doesn't tell you where to oil it, and the marks left behind on the vinyl, and adjusting the nut. All these things that should be in your manual but aren't, cheers from Australia.

Oh this is such a great video!!! Very helpful info. Wow……Thank you ☺️

Now I keep it all the way up and it walks over things beautifully!

I’m pretty sure the Kingmax GC0302 is not a Juki 1181N, rebadged. I’m pretty sure the 302 is rebadged from a Consew, and was probably a Seiko or something like before Consew. The body design looks descended from a Seiko, Mitsubishi, or Nakajima. The 1181 and 302 look quite different. I wish there was a brand and model family tree out there somewhere … it’s interesting and it likely matters in design and quality of parts.

Great video thank you so much

Funny I just found this video. I just bought the 1341 from Ralph's two days ago. People refuse to believe the fact that their all basically the same machines. Juki, Thor, Techsew, Tysew, Consew, Cobra, Kingmax and on and on. But, if want a service shop that'll service your machine, you better buy from the dealer that sells the machine. A local leather supply store told me I should buy a Cobra. I said "why? It's the same machine as the Kingmax, but who's going fix it if it's something I can't actually fix myself or even have the parts? I don't know of any Cobra repair shops around Denver." The only difference between a Cobra and the others is that they're painted brown. I actually like the brown and they're fine machines, but I'd never a Cobra unless I lived near Ontario, CA. Hint: if repair shop also sells vacuums, they most likely are not going to be able to service an industrial machine.

I love listening to him talk. He says your machine is equivalent to my Juki Du1181n. I wish I knew what to do to my machine so i can sew bag linings. Your machine does it with ease. My juki will pull it together with it interfaced and waterproof canvas. I always say thinner fabric is breakfast for my juki. I move back and forth from my Bernina to my Juki. :0

I had to do a double take when you said "so if you're not in Denver" and was like :O I'm in Denver. I'm just seeing the waters about industrials tho.

Great video and SO informative!! I'd LOVE a cylinder arm and have been considering switching out my consew 206rb-5 for one! May go with a KingMax that you were looking at! Thanks for doing a video like this!!

Same problem when you live in Iowa and need help from them in Denver. ONLY drawback I have had so far. Also bought your model to sew leather was not told about the foot thing I may have bought the cylinder instead. I got no instructions except from Kassiah

Such an informative video- I did not see what model the first machine is? Also wondering about the needle chart Jack mentioned? and maybe a thread chart too? Thanks so much

started laughing when he mentioned a 57 chevy, that's what i call an old blue kenmore i have, 1st thought i had when i seen it in a thrift store was this is the same color as the 57 chevy that was around town years ago, the name just stuck when it came home with me lol

i have a singer 320k free arm looks similar for a vintage machine has a nice stich

I’m planning to get a cylender I’m planning to make bags ,sandals etc.

I’m looking for the video where you get your cylinder arm? Have you used it at all in any of your videos?

I use a 19 my thread hardly ever breaks (bonded nylon Tex 70 thread)

Just curious of the price range of your kingmax. Thank you

This video was excellent! I would your personal opinion. I am considering the Juki that is equivalent to your machine, the 1181n. For all of the bags you make and maybe some light leather here and there, would you say 1181n or 1541s?

I have a 1541S and can do linings that have interfacing, wpc easily. You just need to change needle, thread and possible tension. If you have a domestic you can use that for thin material. There’s pro/cons for both cylinder and flatbed. So much info out there lol.

By any chance had you compared the sailrite fabricator to the machine you purchased? Trying to decide which machine to purchase.

I'm looking for an industrial lockstitch and the fabrics i use range from denim to satin, i also make a lot of baby quilts in cotton. I never use leather or vinyl.
