Sometimes referred to as "gypsy snaps," these 3 piece sets are made specifically for cloth-to-surface attachments. The stud has a 3/8″ long Phillips screw that secures the stud to surfaces. The button rivets to the socket and the installed button and socket can then be snapped to the installed stud. These snaps are made from top quality nickel-plated brass (surface stud screws are stainless steel) and are highly corrosion resistant. Great for marine applications, including covers, cushions, dodgers, and more. Diameter of button: approximately 5/8".
3 pieces per set/100 sets per pack. Nickel finish.
The needles with your JUKI are the Organ DBx1, available on our website. This machine uses size 16×257, size 8 through 20 or 16×97. The 8700 can also use standard needles, sizes 9 through 21, universal or fabric-specific needles such as knit.
Where does the machine oil go?
A pan directly underneath the machine supplies oil to the machine with a cotton wick. Lift the machine up and over to access the oil tank while on the table. You must keep the machine’s oil level consistently at the «high» mark, either by adding more oil or draining it and refilling it as needed. If the oil pump can’t get the oil into the machine, it can cause serious problems later.
What kind of oil does this machine require?
You need a specific type, like motor oil in your car, to keep this machine running. The DDL-8700 requires JUKI New Defrix Oil No.1, equivalent to ISO VG7.
What size table can I get with this machine?
Our table has legs and is 22"w x 47"l. It includes a knee and foot pedals and a left-hand drawer for accessories.
Does the DDL 8700 make buttonholes?
No. The 8700 only does straight stitching, with a horizontal bar on the right side for a reverse stitch.
