==Brother XL-3600== | |||
Current status? | |||
Instructions can be found on Brother's website [http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public/eu/gb/en/doc/manual_index.html?reg=eu&c=gb&lang=en&prod=hf_xl3600euk&type2=-1&flang=English&dlid= here] | |||
==Toyota 2260== | |||
We <s>have</s> had an electric pedal operated Toyota 2260. It appears to not be operational anymore? Last update on it was someone tried to fix it with parts from another machine but it's entirely non-working now. | |||
==John Lewis Tiny Purple Machine== | |||
'''Currently broken (September 2019). See 2013 thread:[https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en&fromgroups#!searchin/london-hack-space/john$20lewis/london-hack-space/2BcL0kwiuJs/y5jlk85yMScJ this thread]''' | |||
'''THIS IS FOR LIGHTWEIGHT FABRICS ONLY. Absolutely NO denim (like jeans fabric) or heavy materials like that.''' As in the instructions: If needle does not go through fabric, do not force it. | |||
[[File:PurpleSmachine1.JPG|500px]] | |||
Also of note: It has quite a wide "free arm" - it's pretty much useless for anything small and tubular (like edges of sleeves or very small bags/pouches if you understand that). | |||
===Instruction Manual=== | |||
These pictures should help you start using the machine. It's mostly straight forward if you have the instructions in front of you. PLEASE remember to put the instruction manual back in the box so the next person can read it and learn how to wind a bobbin and thread the machine correctly. With the instructions it's easy-peasy to use. | |||
