I had never heard of Severance before and was curious what exact argument was going to be made 😅

Mull is supposedly no longer being developed.

I did not know that Mull was dead. Thank you for sharing! I will have to make a change.

The important thing is tension, for the thread to be tight. If you can do this, happy engineering! My similar machine, tension on the string is hard, more with a longer length/step.

I am not an engineer, either 🤔 I see your front picture, my machine is similar. I would not be able to change anything myself. As @[email protected] mentioned, these really are highly engineered. If you change one thing, you must change everything.

I understand you know how to change the step length that can be changed now, yes? You say <2mm to 5mm. My very similar machine can go to almost 10mm but it cannot keep the thread very tight. This is the limiting thing, the machine, every part, is designed for sewing a length of 2-8mm or whatever. A longer stitch step would need a complete change and probably a stronger motor.

By moving the knob or lever that changes the stitch step length, you will see what is going on.

If you want to have a longer “step,” you will probably need a larger machine. The limit of that length factors in things like the max thread size and how much tension the machine can maintain. Your machine is for sewing clothes, the longer stitch lengths will be for a more decorative use and would not be durable as a main support stitch.

What communities/instances are these from?

Agreed. Except for one time last fall, I knew it was going to happen and did it anyway, thru the company’s website. That one company had their own portal and everything, didn’t know it came from amazon until it arrived 🤷 I’ll do it again! If I was selling stuff I am sure I would have to look at these few options out there.

Great point. The limited times I have purchased from Amazon in recent history was accidentally in this manner. I think that purchasing directly from the creator’s/company’s website might send a message that some folks would like an alternative, but I don’t know that. Either way, it is less amazon.

I’ve had a body high from a poo, it is pretty remarkable, but the lead up was different and not something I want to repeat. Maybe I will try some Italian food!

Eating a spicy meal that is at my max tolerance such that I can continue to eat as normal. I can get a high from that 🥵😋

Wow that actually seems really good.

What is the shelf life for these?

When I was a teenager, I worked in a garden department of a store. We had plants to water. The pipes for the water had shutoffs in the ceiling in addition to the faucets themselves. I was working over the weekend and needed to water the plants, but no water would come out. The ceiling shutoffs were open, but I had heard there was a master shutoff just inside the store.

So I went in and was looking around on the walls, following pipes, and found this very large pipe with a shutoff on it. It had a tag hanging on it that said “emergency test” but my teen brain thought this meant it had been tested and passed inspection.

I turned it on and went outside, only to find an enormous amount of water coming out a different pipe, some kind of drain. Not what I wanted! When I reentered the store, the fire alarm was going off, but I thought nothing of it, shut the valve, and went about my business. By the time I got back outside, the fire department was there.

About 15 minutes later, fire folks in full gear were in my area poking around with the boss. I asked what happened, and they said for some reason there was a pressure drop in the sprinkler system and it triggered an automatic response 😬 I told them what I did, and they said they were too old for this, and then left. Not a great decision for me that day…

I am wondering about this, also. I have a regular watch, with a “plastic” band. Why would PFAS be used in these bands? Ridiculous.

Chattanooga, Tennessee did something like that, but when they tried to expand outside of the city they were shut down

Wow, I was considering switching to that from Mailfence but maybe not. Maybe I will look at the other options or sit still to see what happens over the next 30 days.
