Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@forlorn_fae says : no, we dont blame it on the sewing machines, but on the corporations using the machine to create unnecessary waste. thanks capitalism.>> <<@nicholasmtay says : this is one of my pervasive daydreaming thoughts and i’m really glad there’s a video to give me an answer. similarly thoughts that deserve, and have very interesting, answers: 1. how do tall buildings get water pressure? 2. how do any buildings get water pressure actually? 3. is there a resonant frequency that can make buildings fall down? if anyone sees this, reply with some other thoughts you’ve had like this>> <<@johnpekkala6941 says : The wasfulness of clothing today is not the sewing machines fault but the trend of fast fashion brought by online sites like Temu that uses modern slavery in absolutley horrible working conditions to produce something you wear maybee one or 2 times and then just throw away! In contrast I want clothes that last long and become part of my personality over time and that, most importantly, are made in a humane way and not by slavery.>> <<@X1000Binary says : Primal Numbers you can't get any Simpler! 😂😅>> <<@marksmale827 says : I think the invention of the sewing machine was one of those which - like the internal combustion engine a bit later in the 19th century and the assembly line in the 20th - changed the world forever, because it enabled the mass production of garments and the birth of the clothing industry ("rag trade"). We all (or almost all) wear clothes!>> <<@yurilvov4319 says : I have an old Singer sewing machine. Where can I find maintenance instructions for it? I really don't want to tinker with it and break it.>> <<@glennhumphries9444 says : Where would we be without the white man?>> <<@kunegund9690 says : 😂 You don't have to make handsewing be horrendous to make a sewing machine worthwhile. Handsewers put the needle through the fabric twice, so the needle comes out on the same side, making it faster, and easier to keep stitch length the same and in a straight line. Western Embroiderers, using a floor hoop, will put a hand either side of the fabric. Machines are just faster and easier to learn to a good standard.>> <<@mattbusler2732 says : a lil bulge>> <<@ralphmcmiller9807 says : After watching many videos on the subject,I still do not understand what prevents the bobbin from coming out of the casing! (specially when the casing is installed vertically).>> <<@peewee8964 says : I fail to believe that it’s more likely a man invented the sewing machine instead of maybe those men taking credit for something their wifes’ might’ve made or had some collaboration with>> <<@Boodschap says : I always wondered this as a child when I saw my mother sitting at the sewing machine. How did this little pin do this? My mother didn't know either. 😄>> <<@e_maysr says : Does anyone else think this guys looks like Rowan from VivaLaDirtLeague?>> <<@creatureris says : Thanks for this great video!>> <<@epicthemusicalfan20 says : 7:37 holy crochet>> <<@epicthemusicalfan20 says : is that why in crochet irs called the chain stich bc that looks like a chain stich to me 4:41>> <<@KarenAmalia-m9b says : This was exactly what I needed, thanks!>> <<@FunnyGeeks101 says : Sowing machines helped me learn spanish! I once needed to use my mom's sowing machine, but her machine from mexico had a manual only in spanish. My spanish may not be that great, but I have seen my fair share of user manuals in general contracting and software engineering. As I was looking through it, I thought "finally, a spanish text that actually makes *sense*" Also helped me learn if-then statements and some words for electronics in spanish.>> <<@dr.bherrin says : Nearly all of my childhood clothing was sewn by me or my mother, so....>> <<@7WeekendWarrior says : Hell yeah, my grandma had Singer made in Ireland in 1912 - still works.>> <<@SuitablyGeneric says : It's a little dishonest at the end. Clothing filling landfills can be full of the occassional holey shirt, old underwear and socks, etc, but the businesses and corporations who mass deposit because of defects or old clothing that didn't sell in stores and is now falling apart. The indication here is "Oh, look how wasteful *you* are" but the truth is a little different. And the people who watch your videos dig deeper than average. Not only that, but those who are picking up the skill of sewing are often trying to keep their clothing good longer, with less waste. A little less "lying with numbers" spin is better, especially after such a fantastic video.>> <<@vv247 says : I just bought a sewing machine and picking up the bobbin thread was a WTF moment. Super video.>> <<@vincentruben4365 says : 14:55 yeah and dont forget those children were heroes>> <<@J32839 says : I always wondered this as a kid!>> <<@Radians019 says : Real ones know this is a reupload>> <<@toro5338 says : Are you interested in how the sawing machine works ? Skip the first 5:50 minutes>> <<@rogerbussiii says : Yes ive often wondered..>> <<@SpitfireMKX says : I love those old machines. I collect them and use them all regularly. Fast fashion has been such a disaster for everyone—bad for the environment, bad for the sweat shop workers making pennies on the dollar, and bad for the people wearing them: synthetic fibers trap odor and bacteria, they don’t keep you warm/cool, they’re full of chemicals… the combination of fast fashion and planned obsolescence has been such a travesty.>> <<@hyphenpointhyphen says : 35kg that is more clothing than i ever owned in weight, ridiculous.>> <<@kyplummer3657 says : Thank you this has been killing my brain for a long time now that all I can think about everytime I use one>> <<@iKrizNL says : Recently made a dust cover on a sewing machine, man they are sensitive machines, fun to learn the road to where we are now. Here in 2026 thank you algorithm 😊>> <<@awfulunicorn says : The amount of mechanically synchronized motion brings me joy every time I use a sewing machine>> <<@sarcastikser says : I still have a working mechanical sewing maching and its been 28 years since my mother repaired it>> <<@StephenDatahead-r2k says : How did they make thread 50,000 years ago!>> <<@akehapkap6143 says : If it’s not sown with a sowing mashing, then you have some really expensive stuff. Unless it’s glued.>> <<@ResonantBytes says : Crazy how clickbait prevented me from watching this video until now.>> <<@Cypher791 says : This was reposted to an AI channel called… “FactsInformation-g5d”..>> <<@albertbordelon2342 says : I have hand sown small leather projects since I was a kid. I am getting my first leather sewing machine very soon. This video was very informative and helpful. Thank you 🙏👍>> <<@Red-Black-White-Pilled says : BS science about the ‘non human’ using a needle. God created man. Evolution is a lie and you are propping up this lie. You cannot help yourselves. Can you? And ‘heroic women’. What patronising crap. That’s what YouTube meant when they called you up that time and told you that ‘you need to be more relevant’. What a grift it’s become. Just stick to the actual science.>> <<@andrewhunter6536 says : Are overlock stitches also with a rotating spool?>> <<@SunderAsmen says : Brilliant explanation. Thank you!>> <<@daveedwards9575 says : Great topic. Also the reverse button is more genius, drive the foot backwards then forwards without the main rotation stopping.>> <<@stevrossie says : Bullshiy>> <<@cmr9928 says : Sekrup Gear ( gear ratio ) Mesin uap Watermill Mesin jahit Listrik Yang mengubah peradaban dunia>> <<@LyndaGoodman says : Very well done, appreciate this video!>> <<@sharoncarthy3764 says : This is one of the best learning videos I've seen on YouTube, and I subscribed. I learned from my mom how to use a sewing machine and also learned in Home Economics class (yeah, I'm a senior) how to use one. The history of it all was amazing. The names Isaac Singer and Elias Howe I recognized, but didn't know so many others had come before them. The history of its development makes me realize even more what a genius invention the sewing machine is! I think it's one of the most important inventions mankind has come up with. Your explanations and models were excellent. This was so well done!👍👍👍👍👍👍💖💖💖💖💖👵💪>> <<@Chris-c2r2k says : Very good documentary! Well done.>> <<@MsBlulucky says : 0:35 "Every piece of clothing you've ever put on virtually was made by a sewing machine" No. Every piece of clothing you've ever put on was made by a human. I know that's not the point of the video, but it's vital to always remember that. Especially in the age of fast fashion.>> <<@friedasorber1653 says : I only use old foot powered sewing and embroidery machines. I find they respond better to rythm changes. I use a regular Singer over 100yrs old and several types of chainstitch embroidery machines, Cornély Bonnaz. one was briefly shown in the video. I own several that do more intricate things than just chainstitch. Amazing machines. They take a lot of practice but once you get going they are great. and just made for curved designs.The Guy who showed the chainstitch machine is right. One produces a lot of noise. A whole room full of steam engined powered once must have been extremely loud. I guess about as loud as a large number of steam powered weaving looms.>> <<@RooftopKoreansMusic says : video starts at 4:10>>
