BTW: I have been posting these issues on LEATHERWORKERS.NET also, as they do more sewing then the typical sign guy, and here is what one of the sewing experts had to say: If you want to sew with #69 bonded thread, use a #18 (110) needle. A #150 needle is waaaaay too big! It is meant for #138...

Yes, I cleaned everything very good when I got it home, Thanks

Well, several people have told me the bigger #150 needle is to big for VINYL banners! And all thread charts say to use a #110/18 needle for #69 thread, and that's what I have in the machine NOW... Yes, I will set the bobbin back as it was when I got the machine and see if that helps...

Yes, I installed a new #110/18 needle per the needle Mfgs thread/needle chart for #69 thread. The machine came with a new box of 100 #110/18 Organ needles. I think the needle is installed properly, there is NO flat side, the MSK-1245B uses ROUND needles, however the manual says to install the...

Well, I thought sewing a hem on a banner would be easy if I got the right sewing machine, (which I did), now however this tension adjusting is biting me in the but. The guy I purchased the machine from sewed leather and tents, so the machine will handle banners without any problems, however the...

Yep, you might want to check your page size and make sure you don't have anything outside of the designated page dimension. Sometimes a stray DOT or graphic element can cause problems with a PDF....

Here is a video showing a hem guide attachment, it looks to work pretty good? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9WKRTFGU-c

Hey, I saw one of those Hen Guides on Ebay, they have one for sewing on the back and it folds the material over in front of the needle for a 1" hem. http://www.ebay.com/itm/161335422452?var=460362179006&ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2649 Is this like the one you have?

Ok, you were right, I turned the upper tension dial 6 full turns (more) and now the stitches look about the same on the top and bottom, when I went to 7 turns, the top started to look bad. So, here is another question: When hemming a banner, do you sew from the FRONT or the BACK so you can see...

Are you sure the TOP tension is LOW, I was thinking the BOTTOM (bobbin) tension was to tight? When I pull the two threads (one at a time) by hand the TOP thread is very tight and the bobbin thread feels much looser, again I don't know NOTHING about this, I will try adjusting things, I just...

Good info folks! The machine came with two large spools of V69 Dacron Boned Poly thread (white), and a Schmetz 150 needle installed. I sewed a test hem of 15oz banner and the top stitches look good, but I don't think the bottom stitches look right, (see attached photos). I will order some...

I have been on here for over 5 years and at different times asked questions about sewing hems on 15 oz. banners. Well, I finally bit the bullet and purchased a nice professional walking foot industrial strength sewing machine to sew the hem on banners. Now, my questions are: What size, type...

If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, ............Do you have feathers?

Here is another tutorial on how to create Beams Of Light from nothing in Photoshop, similuar to the background in the image you prpovided: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8PpbgU-BQQ As mentioned, use many, many layers to create the image. Good luck.

Two things, there are tons of videos on YouTube showing how to substitute the background in an image using PS, second because this is a raster based image and not a vector based image, illustrator is NOT the tool to use. Here is just one of thousands...

Question? Do you ONLY sell Roland OEM cap tops or after market? The reason I'm asking, the last ones you sent me had NO markings or part number on the packageing, they were in a plain plastic bag that was not even sealed. Another 101'er told me his Roland cap tops came in a plastic bag with a...
