As we all know at time thread tension can be the death of us!

This is a video on long arm tension, they refer to several machines but not the Bailey, the basics are the same
I know that this is a long video however it encompasses a lot of info, from the properly wound bobbin, to bottom and top tension.If you don't want to watch the whole video fast forward but placing your cursor on the red line at the base of the video and drag to 11 minutes. If you have time watch the whole video as you are taking a coffee break
