I've watched a lot of different videos but by far your explanations and insight is the bomb. Thank you, I just bought a Singer 112w dan and I am beside myself. Been needing a dn for years, finally had to just take the plunge.
Thank you, I really appreciate you taking the time to leave such a positive comment. Enjoy your new 112, it's an awesome machine. I have a switchable needle self oiling Juki now but still miss my 112
How I take the bobbin Outlook ?
Just got machine today and looking at your video I am so happy to get machine oild and make parts move since must bee siting 25 years .Thank you so much .
Great info as always, the needle bar upgrade is Aces.
such great videos. thanks for taking the time to make and share them with us all.
+futtymad Thanks!!!!
It's honestly one of the most underrated Singers ever...Actual factories and sewing-contractors SWEAR by them, but they go unnoticed outside of production settings. Every double needle rotary machine out now shares lineage with the 112w. I'm buying two more lol
They're rock solid. I loved mine but ultimately replaced it with a switchable needle Juki, self oiling and very fast but there's just something about the Singer 112 that is just so appealing.
Just wanted to thank you so much for taking the time and trouble of posting your videos, I found your channel today and watched for 6 hours! I've watched literally hundreds of sewing machine related CZcams clips, you're by far and away the most knowledgeable expert, with a huge range of knowledge that I've found. You said some of the videos are a bit long, that's fine with me, you go into such great level of detail - anyone genuinely interested in sewing machines will value the opportunity to learn. I hope you'll continue to post clips, I've subscribed and look forward to seeing more. Shame you're so far away, I'd be interested in buying a machine from someone who not only loves the machines so much, but knows how to service and adjust. Greetings and regards from Mold, North Wales UK
Thank you for highlighting this machine and the very valuable information offered. I have one Good luck and continue to help us and the world. God bless you.
Another great explanation - you are very good! Thanks.
Thanks so much - REALLY useful! Hope to be able to get our Singer 212 going again now...
Awesome video, thanks so much. I have a Singer 112W140 which I'm in the process of restoring. Your video really helped a bunch!
Glad it was some help! I have to thank you for your 8520 video series. I'm picking mine up this weekend and it's been a huge help seeing the restoration process ahead of time so I know what I'm in for.
Just picked up a 112w139 for 350 with table,motor,lamp,desk - this vid made me pull the trigger! Will in due time add a servo motor and walking foot upgrade for leather. Thanks for the gr8 vid!
Francois Brand has your machine been good? I may buy one for 250 with nothing but the head, not sure if i may get sucked into costly repairs on top of the table and motor investment
I know this is an old video, but I just purchased one of these and I'm super excited to get it setup and sewing. It was just the head, so I did purchase a servo motor (got it for $30 bucks--great buy) and I am a woodworker so I will also be building the table for it. So in a few days I hope to be sewing with it. Thanks for the great video. I am having trouble finding the manuals for it, but I will try singeronline again and look for them. Also, thanks for the comment from Mike below about the adjuster knob issue. I'm going to check out his video next. So, just know your effort in making is video is still relevant today in June 2020 as it was in 2015, and thanks again. Bill
Thank you for the kind words, I appreciate it! You'll really enjoy that machine and I think sewing complements woodworking nicely.
Wow moving needle with the feet, this is awesome.
Thank you, I just got one in our store for service, never worked on one before. Watching your video, I learned alot about this double needle unit. Customer said,threads kept falling out of her tension dials.... unfortunately, we only have the head. I was hoping to also see how this is threaded. Lady purchased this unit from a Pocketbook factory that closed. Thanks again.
This is a very professional presentation. The 15 viewers who registered thumbs down must be living under a rock
thank you! :)
Thanks so much for your help god bless you god blessed your family
wooooa old but amazing machine, thanks
Awesome video!!!!! Thank You so very much!!!!!
Kick ASS Video Bro! Thanx So Much!
Super really i like so much.
Thanks for making video
Great video. What are some other equivalents besides the Juki LH-515? Thanks!
You said once you replace the needle bar you can swap out with with the modern gauges. What do you look for to make sure the feed dogs and needle plate all fit. Is there a corresponding modern model # to look for?
Good Detail, Question ? I have a 112W140 double needle and cant get the stitch length adjusted down enough any though on this?
GREAT VIDEO thanks so much
Your video is about as close as I can find to a singer 112w116 - mine has the puller/presser roller addition. I was wondering if you had any machines with that assembly functional. I'd love to see that in use.
Great educational video; do you by chance have the upgrade needle bar #?
Hi I did not get the model # for the Juki needle bar I just purchase a 112w 116 that is missing the roller assemble but is just identical to your , 2nd question I had was what is the max thread you can use in this machines ? is 138 the max ? and also what size needles you use ? I want to use this machine to do uphostery work (the french seams part I have a 206 consew and a 226 consew but thought I could use this machine for that ) Also do you use this machine for medium leather work or just light leather work? thanks in advance Ray
Great videos! I have a problem with a 112w140. The left upper thread frays after 6 inches of sewing. Been doing it since day one. Replaced the entire tension regulator assembly, replaced both rotary hooks, I have different width gauges and all width gauges do the same, left thread frayed. Took the thread out of left needle,leaving everything the same, threaded the right needle sews perfectly. New needles, countless timing checks and minute timing adjustments. It doesn't matter with the thread wt, From tex30 to tex90 needle sizes from size 16 to 23 the same result. According to the manual, the needle bar adjustment is from bdc needle travel up .080 the hook should be centered in the scarf of the needle.
Do you know how to adjust the needle bar ,bought one an didn’t know it was bent or out of alignment way off thanks
Thank you for the great information. Can you recommend a double needle machine? I have a baby loc Anna and a brother serger already. I’m not sure I’ve seen this model for sale where I live. Thank you
I want to do the needle bar upgrade for my machine. Where can I get info for doing this for a 145wsv26? Seems a bit more rare than the 112 and I am not finding near as much info on mine. Any help is appreciated.
Hi thesergent i have singer 111w103, is it possible to the me how can i pull the stitch reg spindle without damaging it when i want to put it back.i am trying to change the timing
belt on it, last time i done this i damage the rod which which the spindle go through thanks for your respond. JOHN
If you have time to answer what needle are you using I upgraded mine to the new screw in type needle bar.
My stitch regulator on my 112w139 has backed out all the way to the point I can pull the whole shaft will pull out. I can’t manage to screw it back in, I realize it’s reverse threads but it seems it is hangin up on something. Do you have any tips?
Thank you so much for making this video. I will be asking you a few more questions soon as I've recently acquired a Singer 112w116. It is pretty much identical to yours, except it also has a compound puller-roller feed. Unfortunately the spacing is about 7/8" and I'd like to change it 5/16" but cannot find anybody who sells a gauge set for this family of machines.
Hey, just came across this and i'm wondering if you still have that machine? I have one as well, but I don't have the top puller feed assembly. I've been trying to find one, but I might end up having to make it. If you still have that machine, I could use your help with some specs. Thanks.
Do you have a part # or source for that screw in needle bar?
Hi, GREAT VIDEO. I just found a similar machine and is the model 119W1. I know is know as a hemstitcher machine but was wondering since it is a double needle machine if it will work for zig zag or straight line sewing. Hope you can help if you’re more familiar with this machines. Thank you.
I watched your video and have a Singer 112W115 like the one you have. I think the machine # is W225693. You mentioned that parts are readily available. Can you please share with me (us) your sources? I either find parts not available or it fits a different machine version/update. Thank you
hey man could you help me ? you seem to know alot bout machines I have a singer 212A14AA and it jumbles up a lot when im making a banner at work and I'm in a dead end because I don't know what to do
How I can change the needle part is to wide beetween the needles do you can help me please
Great video, very informative! I have a 153W102 and a two needle 154W101 that uses the same system. Looks like your stitch length knob is working correctly. Both my machines have stripped flights the adjuster knob rides in on the arm shaft. It is a weak spot for this family of machines that's worth noting. There is a fix for it however. I'll be working on a video myself to demonstrate how. If you do buy a used one be sure to check it out thoroughly for this malady! Don't buy one online!
Mike Miller, Did you ever make your video?? Sure could use the advice on how to fix the adjuster issue. Maybe The Sergent knows about this issue and the fix and will be gracious enough to make a video for those of us that could benefit.
Hello, have you done this video?...l have this problem on my 111W100...anybody knows a fix for this?
Just came across your video. Excellent camera work and awesome narrative. Would this be the right machine to sew two individual pieces
Of vinyl together using a French seam that is typically used in auto and boating upholstry? Thanks again for a quality video.
Thank you! The seam you want is called a "flat felled seam". There are attachments available for double needle machines like this that will for the seam and stitch it together as you go. Very very fast and excellent strength.
How I take the bobbin out ?
Can you show me how enhebrar the machine pleas?
I just found one on Facebook for 150 with a table. Should I get it? I have 2 201s and 99 and 15 and 101 and an industrial 31-15. I will sell these but not the best 201 with tsbke.
Would you say are pros vs cons of this machine vs a basic walking foot machine? Like the smaller walking foot machines they’re calling “portable”.
I needle feed sews faster and more smoothly than a walking foot machine. The portable machines like the Sailrites, are different that other industrial walking foot machines in that they are dual transport (feed dogs and outer foot move) not triple transport like a Singer 111, PFaff 545, etc (feed dogs, inner foot and needle move). The choice is going to come down to material thickness and feeding demands. I'd say a needle feed machine is good for most people. What are you going to be using the machine for?
This video was super helpful! I'm seriously considering buying one of these. Question for you - would I have any issues sewing a lighter fabric with a 115? Usually I work with wool flannel (usually 2 layers up to 3 or 4). Thank you!
It will work with lighter fabric/thread but you may need to adjust the position of the hook to be closer to the needle if it was setup for heavier thread. Youll have to drop the bobbin tension and upper tension to match as well.
What would be a good Servo motor to put with this ? as well as possibly a speed reducer ? I have only the head so far. TIA
I like the Enduro Pro line but any brushless servo will be a big upgrade. I don't think a speed reducer is necessary on these types of machines. The only machine I'd get a speed reducer on is a dedicated veg tan leather machine but that's a whole different world.
I have a 132w102 post an having trouble with the thread not winding do you have a video of adjusting
Are you talking about your bobbin winder? If so, loosen the bolts holding it down to the table and slide it forward slightly until it contacts the belt.
All I want is to find a needle pusher bar with the timing marks and threaded end.
Hi, Thanks for taking the time to do this, Great video. Question, What would a Singer double needle 134-3 machine be worth in good condition, and would it work for thick webbing application such as backpack and such?
prices vary widely depending on condition and your location. $300-$800 in my area (SF Bay, CA)
is the machine is still for sale? if yes how much
GOLD
Verynice
Does anyone know has anyone tired to sew leather with this machine?
Where did you get the modern needle bar and parts??
I purchased them off of eBay. There are quite a few generic options available.
I have this same machine and I'm having trouble threading it, I also need some parts for it, van anyone help me out and direct me to a place that sells pasta for it? the pasta that I need are the 3 gears on the front of the machine - where the thread goes through.
what is the website you use to get parts from. I have the same machine as in the video.
I highly recommend Gregg at Keystone Sewing (www.keysew.com).
Thanks I will be sure to try them
What made you to get involved in sewing ?
+boat buddy I was going to do a cross country bike tour some years back and need a set of panniers, frame bags, etc. and the only guys that made them were months out on backorder, so I decided to make my own. A couple weeks before I was supposed to leave on my trip I was hit by a car on my motorcycle and broke my hand. I wasn't able to do that trip and ended up riding down the pacific coast instead. After I got back I figured out what changes I wanted to make to my system and decided I wanted to build a "hammock camping kit" as well as a few other items. After that I got a lot more serious about learning to sew and my skills progressed from there.
@@thesergeant3524 I would love to see your hammock camping kit.

Are you referring to the bobbin winder? If so, loosen the screws that hold it to the table and slide it forward slightly. I will do a video on that soon.
