Love it ♥️🧵Could you please do another bobbin winding video but without the music and real time instead of sped up ! Like to see how long it takes to wind ! Glenn
I just acquired one like this! I'm having trouble getting the bobbin thread to pull up properly, do you have any tips? Mine doesn't have a manual and I can't find the exact model online
The two most common causes for this problem are either the needle is not set in the needle clamp correctly or it's not threaded right. Make sure the needle has the long grove facing left and it is threaded from left to right. Hope that helps! There is a Facebook group for Davis Vertical Feed machines and they have manuals in their Files section. facebook.com/search/top?q=davis%20verticla%20feed
@@FiddleyBits I got it! I had had to replace the needle, and it was a little shorter than the original so it wasn't dropping down far enough where I had it in the clamp. Lowered it a little and clamped it back down, and it works now!
The NVF model uses standard 15x1 needles (same as most Singer machines) you can get anywhere. The earlier models use the really long needles (some call dagger needles) that you can get online size MTX190, 190(R),SY7555.
YES...Thumper!!! The do have a thumping sound don't they. I agree completely with the straight-line quilting use for these machines!! NO SHIFTING WHILE QUILTING!! 🙂
I have the same machine. Thank you for showing yours. ❤️
🎉Thank you!!! So helpful!

I don't care to piece with my Davis VFs, either, but for straight-ish line quilting, they can't be beat!
I call mine "Thumper".
