Menggunakan Mesin Obras untuk Jahit Semi Neci

Dari dulu saya selalu berpikir, kenapa sih tidak ada mesin jahit yang bisa mengerjakan semua? Mulai dari jahit lurus, zigzag, obras, overdeck, hingga neci dalam satu mesin. :))
Kalau ada, pabrik mesin jahitnya bisa gulung tikar kali ya.

Di postingan ini, saya ingin membahas tentang mesin obras yang diubah menjadi (semi) neci, wolsum, atau lebih dikenal dengan sebutan jahit tepi. Judulnya sudah tertulis 'semi' yang artinya tidak bisa sepenuhnya menggantikan jahit neci, tapi setidaknya bisa menghemat biaya pembelian mesin neci. :b

Sudah dua tahun saya memakai mesin obras 3 benang dan tahu kalau mesin itu bisa disetel ke jahit (semi) neci, tapi apa daya dari dulu paling takut setel2 mesin jahit ini karena keterbatasan skill. Kurang setel sedikit saja bisa mengurangi feel saat menjahit. Halah, lebe!

Browsing di YouTube dan menemukan video Cara Merubah Mesin Obras jadi Neci.
***Intermezzo: this Grammar Nazi side of me merasa kurang sreg dengan judulnya yang "merubah". Seharusnya "mengubah" karena merubah artinya membuat jadi rubah. *kemudian gw dilempar batu*

Ternyata gampang toh setelnya. Pengait benangnya dilepas supaya lebar jahitan dari jarum ke tepi kain jadi lebih rapat sehingga menyerupai jahit neci. Bagi saya, semi neci ini paling berguna saat menjahit circle skirt untuk dress anak. Saya lihat di toko (tiiiit...*suara sensor*) yang harganya ratusan ribu juga menggunakan jahit semi neci! Saya mengira baju yang bisa dijual di toko terkenal setidaknya menggunakan mesin neci. Hal inilah yang mendorong saya untuk menyetel mesin obras saya. Hehe...

Berikut foto hasil modifikasinya.

Untuk hasil yang lebih bagus, dapat menggunakan benang neci. Fotonya sudah di zoom in sehingga terkesan masih lebar dan tidak menyerupai neci. Aslinya lebih bagus dan lebih rapat. Yaaa...secara kasat mata bisa lah menghemat biaya mesin neci. :D

Rotary Cutter Murah dan Mahal

Dua tahun lalu, saat sedang tergila-gila menjahit dress anak, saya tertarik untuk membeli perlengkapan menjahit salah satunya rotary cutter, alat yang penting dalam pembuatan bias tape. Jadinya saya beli cutting mat dan rotary cutter 45mm (dulu nggak peduli merk, yang penting punya rotary cutter).

Lalu, ntah hormon dan bawaan hamil anak cowok atau bukan, tiba-tiba saya jadi malaaaaas banget sama yang namanya menjahit! Keinginan untuk mengoleksi perlengkapan menjahit pun hilang. Dan kini, saat usia si kecil 6 bulan, keinginan menjahit kembali muncul.

Rotary cutter yang saya beli pertama kali kini sudah tak mantap digunakan. Awalnya saya mengira pisau yang sudah tak tajam, setelah mengganti pisau ternyata masalahnya sama saja. Selalu ada satu bagian yang tidak dapat memotong kain. Dipotong berulang-ulang juga tetap satu spot tersebut tidak terpotong!

Browsing di Google, lebih banyak yang merekomendasikan merk Olfa. Saya sering baca kalau merk rotary cutter yang terkenal itu Olfa, baru kesampaian beli saat rotary cutter yang murah bermasalah.

Ini foto rotary cutter saya, sebut saja yang murah (kiri) dan mahal (kanan) :)))))

Saya memang belum lama menggunakan yang mahal, tapi yang bisa saya simpulkan: saat menggunakan yang murah, perlu tenaga ekstra untuk memotong dibandingkan dengan yang mahal. Serpihan kain juga tidak banyak yang menempel di cutting mat kalau menggunakan yang mahal. Kesel kan kalau cutting mat mulai kotor dan mengganggu proses pemotongan. (oh ya, dari yang saya baca dan sudah dipraktekkan, membersihkan cutting mat menggunakan karet penghapus sangat mudah dan bersih sih sih sih!)

Menurut saya, worth it lah kalau beli yang mahal untuk penggunaan serius dan jangka panjang. Pisaunya juga bisa diganti kalau sudah tidak tajam. ;)
Sekian dan Happy Sunday!
