A blog devoted to my vintage sewing machines and how I find them, fetch them and fix them.

Sometimes you gotta let go.
Sometime last winter I googled vintage sewing machine and landed on sewing-machines.blogspot.com Now, those of you who are not sewing machine fanatics might not appreciate the sentiment expressed by Mr. Lamoureaux, but I laughed out loud.

I am somewhere between phase four and phase five. I have yet to sell my computerized sewing machine, I doubt that I will, but I won't fix it again.
I was working on this machine last night when I buggered up a set screw in the presser foot bar. I did not think that I gave the screw driver that much torque but the screw broke. I was able to get it out and I MIGHT have a replacement. I was so intent on cleaning it up that I did not take serial photos of how it came apart. Uh oh. This may be bound for Otsego metal crushes. Don't tell Steve.
