- Make your own sewing patterning weight bags so you can easily pattern canvas and upholstery jobs. These sand bags are the perfect size and weight for most sewing applications. One yard of a 60" wide marine fabric will make a total of 7 bags.

Great video. I made a few of these weighted bags years ago. You can save time and a lot of grief at the sewing machine by putting the sand in a food saver bag. Just heat seal them without vacuuming the bag. Hope this helps.
Started to write same thing and seen your comment 😃 it will be cheaper than the material for pattern making.
👍 love your videos they are so helpful and professional!
Great Job and video.
Thank You
On the open end of the inner bag I left half of an inch and put down seam stick for canvas part #129 :), filled it with sand, closed the end with the seam stick and sewed it closed. Not a grain of sand hit my machine.! Thanks @sailrite
Your welcome!!!! Good job.
Team Sailrite Giant. I love you.

انا أحبكم.
Thanks!!!
I really enjoyed your video
You could scale it down and make cornhole bags.
Like all uses u give to the sand bags
Hi, I'm Carlos, how do I get the acrylic ruler?
If these bags never leak sand...great idea. However, if the sand leaks onto the material, wouldn't it pose a risk to the oiled moving parts of the sewing machine?
We have used these weighted sandbags in all our sewing projects for the past two years. If they are constructed as shown, they have never leaked any sand, not a drop. But if you are still concerned use rice instead of sand.
Or use large BBs or steel/led shot. Or pennies.
@@nyetloki Or glass or plastic beads, depending on the weight needed.
Now I know what to do with all the used kitty litter my girlfriend tosses every week.
If someone made their own sandbag, why would they add a Sailrite Logo, if Sailrite didn't make the bag.?
To answer your question "why use a Sailrite Tag?" Most of the world knows that Sailrite is a DIY company. So when sewers display the Sailrite logo tag they are showing the world that they did it themself, at least that is the hope! Not only that --- the tags also make items look cool.

Thank you for answering my question. I do like your company a lot, I just didn't understand what you mean by applying the tag.
* I wish you folks could do some type of test of how long your machine will run on a standard 12v backup system with an inverter and maybe a standard Marine battery. That way people could see how easy Sailrite machines can be used if you are at dock with no power and you didn't want to run a generator....or some scenario like that. Thank you for your company and all the great equipment.
@@jenky1044 Great suggestion. I bet an owner of the Sailrite Ultrafeed somewhere has already tested running the machine on an inverter for long periods of time. If so, can you comment about how long it performed before draining the battery?
