Post by applePi »

i never understood the magical working of the sewing machine needle, but these animated Gifs may provide some clues, but still confused:

Thanks, very nice animations, especially the first one. My wife restores historical sewing machines and this is really interesting. I love the smart and robust design, great engineering. Just to look at them use to inspire me a lot.

I like logic, hence I dislike humans but love computers.

The mechanics of a sewing machine is something that I've long wondered about.
Thank you applePi for the links, now I grok it.
I was looking at Craigslist ads last month for a used machine for my kids to use for cosplay support,
and want the seller to give a sewing machine setup and sewing lesson as a part of the transaction.

He probably does, however it's still not legal in most jurisdictions. Assexual reproduction won't work.

Sex is not the answer. Sex is the question. "Yes" is the answer.

The gif does not explain how 'one thread only' sewing machine works... (I have a portable one with only one bobine)

My mother in law is a veteran pro, and currently does industrial sewing for a company who contracts government clothing in Europe and some of Russia.

Me and the wife have a small machine we fix stuff with. It doesn't do thick stuff. I've fixed them before. The old ones are a lot easier to fix.

Clothing templates are like looking at topology worksheets..

It's almost pointless to learn this stuff, because decent materials are a nightmare to source..
The truth hurts.

Sewing machines on a programming forum ???
Who would have thought ?

Great stuff !

Thank you, applePi.
"That's not a bug..." said the programmer. "it's a feature! "
"Oh! I see..." replied the blind man.

Thanks Richard... interesting stuff.

He was certainly a deep thinker and very much ahead of his time.
