You, sir... are an ulcer-preventing part of creation! Thank you!
I use a combination of all of those bobbins and cases on several machines yesterday I had a bent needle 💉🧵 I finally figured out why it would only do straight stitches it wasn't bent that much and it was hitting the top of the Bob and Chase on zig zag or any of the other decorative.
I still like the flying shuttle machines like my Minnesota those bullet bobbins are cool especially to watch in slow motion
Thank you so much. Will do this when I get home!
I hope it helps Debbie! Let me know if there's anything else you need...
I finally got it in. Found out the bobbin case holder was screwed in backwards so the needle did not go into the bobbin case hole. Once it was doing that smoothly I tried to sew but it sews a few stitches then breaks the top thread. When I tap the bobbin case it does have give a little. Is that what's wrong?
I could send a video of what's happening but don't have your email or .com. I thought I saw it somewhere.

I have look for an adjustors manual but can't find one.
This was so helpful. I came into possession recently of this machine and built the table and motor. I noticed this same thing today was happening and didn’t know what to do. Thank you for doing this.
Glad it was helpful!
Good job
Awesome!
Very well done,thank you!
Glad you liked it!
Fascinating!
That machine was the biggest pain in my posterior... I was so glad when it was finished and back at Brandi's house!
Great video, thanks.
How do you adjust hook/needle distance on the 31/331?
I have a class 31 sewing machine. According to the part numbers the bobbin case and race are for a 31-15. I was gifted a class 15 sewing machine but it had no bobbin case, hook or race with it. I removed the race, hook and bobbin case from my 15-91 and it does fit, but the race, hook and case from my 31 fits. Since both machines use a class 15 bobbin I'm wondering if that is the correct part for that 15 sewing machine. What's your opinion?
Thank you Bob - found this video after an hour of trying to assemble the race back. P.S. - where do you buy the "Springy thingy" to position and start the small bolts? Thanks.
You can get those on Amazon, but I like the better quality ones I get at Micro-Mark.

Amigo eu tenho uma máquina de costura Singer 31k15 antiga de 1947, esse bloco e a lançadeira da da 31-15 também serve na Singer 31k15 ?
Sim, isso deve funcionar, mas se a nova peça não for feita pela Singer, você pode ter problemas.
Yo también tengo una de esas 3115 pero está desgastado dónde va el cangrejo comenta
I need a springy thingy.

hi bob.
bob do you know the place where to buy custom decals from PLAIN paper ?
thank you.
No idea Pavel. But try a well stocked hobby shop that specializes in plastic models, a lot of those guys make their own decals.
Hi Bob, i bought a used machine and I can seem to get it to pick up the bobbin thread. I replaced the hook and race what can it be?
Hi Jocelyn. I had a Zoom call just this morning with another 31-15 owner about the same thing! It could be a timing issue, but I fear the hook you were sold may be a 15 series hook and not a 31 - there is a (minor) difference, and while a 15 hook MIGHT work, it doesn't always. Email me at argosybob@gmail.com and we can set up a time for a phone or Zoom call and we can discuss it deeper.
Hi Bob, I got it together and it sews now after I threaded the needle from left to right, but it bunches up underneath so what causes the thread doing that? Oh should the hook have any give?
If by "bunches up" you mean you're getting a rats nest of thread on the underside, that's an upper thread tension issue. Make sure you're threaded correctly and that the presser foot was raised so the thread is between the tension disks when threading.
The thread was loopy loose under so I tightened the top and it looked good on 4 thicknesses of plastic and I tightened the bobbin screw because it was very loose and thread did not syay under the plate. When sewing on rubber and plastic window it messed up. So you think it's a tension issue? Only problem is that I can't really practice on the window...it's like sewing on leather and leaves holes behind.
Also the short version manual I have is 8 pages and does not show how to thread. I go through one spool pin eye as a guide then wrap through the three hole guide, the discs, spring, horn hook, take-up lever, guides and then L to R through needle. I am missing the needle guide. I have it on order.
@@debbiepring2236ping me at argosybob@gmail.com please...
Is the hook timing adjustable?
The answer is yes... and no... Yes, you can adjust the hook timing, and no, it's not as intuitive as you may like. I don't have a 31-15 to demonstrate on, but I can show on a 15-30 as the process is pretty much the same. Look for it in a future video.
