Teaching Tool - Lockstitch graphic

Recommended Posts

I watched it for 10 minutes, and concluded this graphic is a FAKE!!!!

1) It never ran out of thread, especially in that hard to justify spot where just starting with a new spool in the middle of the most important part of the job will look like crap...

2) It never jammed, I expected a jam at 8 minutes in.

3) The operator never yelled profanities at 8 minutes, 1 second....

FAKE, FAKE, FAKE.... :P:P:P

I agree. My sewing mentor (way before I started skydiving) told me that the only thing less predictable than a sewing machine, was a woman........or was it the other way around......anyway, this ilustration seems to be very predictable, so it must be fake

I'm being looked at as a madman because that is so effing funny I've cackled aloud and the wife thinks I've lost it! :D

Pete Draper,

Just because my life plan is written on the back of a Hooter's Napkin, it's still a life plan.... right?

Hmm,

It took me about 1 sec to download the realistic version and 10 sec to download the original fake version from the OP. Just about the right relationship to how fast the second one happens to how fast you get the first one to happen.
