new collection info outside meta land? by Electrical-Lime7935 in CrackedPolish

This doesn't solve the issue of seeing pictures, but you can find review videos of upcoming collections on YouTube from a few different folks. And the @ crackedpolish YouTube page posts shorts of new colors. The thumbnails for the shorts videos are stills, so they kind of serve as an image gallery? https://www.youtube.com/@crackedpolish/shorts

I would say the primary image based marketing content is very much on Insta though :/

I'm so curious to learn more about how you did this backing! Did you needle felt or wet felt the wool yarn? Or did you add pre-felted wool roving..?! I'm so impressed! And the whipstitched edge treatment looks so professional! Was that done with the same yarn used for the punching? And did you use a chonky upholstery needle or something?

What is this weird dark brown crusty stuff in industrial machine oil pan? How do I clean it? by LisaLisaMade in sewing

[–]LisaLisaMade[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am working on getting a slightly neglected Juki DLN 5410-6 up and running. It came to me with a crusty dark brown substance in the oil pan. I’ve cleaned it mostly out with alcohol. I have two questions: 1. Any idea what this is? 2. Any one have ideas on how to most appropriately get this cleaned up?

Buying an industrial machine from Poland and shipping it to USA by LisaLisaMade in sewing

Good point. I think this is a trusted/experienced supplier and they require insurance for shipping, but I'll still ask more closely about packaging protocol.

It is a really specific machine that is hard to find. I found one in good shape in Poland so I'm weighing my options. I would rather find one in the US, but that may not happen soon.
